Looks like it is time for another crash course on how this works…

Veto Override Procedure in the House and Senate

Summary

A
bill or joint resolution that has been vetoed by the President can
become law if two-thirds of the Members voting in the House and the
Senate each agree to pass it over the President’s objection. The
chambers act sequentially on vetoed measures; the House acts first on
House-originated measures (H.R. and H.J. Res.) and the Senate acts
first on Senate-originated measures (S. and S.J. Res.). If the
first-acting chamber fails to override the veto, the measure dies and
the other chamber does not consider it. The House typically considers
the question of overriding a presidential veto under the hour rule,
with time customarily controlled and allocated by the chair and
ranking member of the committee with jurisdiction over the bill. The
Senate usually considers the question of overriding a veto under the
terms of a unanimous consent agreement.

Voting in the House

To
override a veto, two-thirds of the Members voting, a quorum being
present, must agree to repass the bill over the President’s
objections. The Constitution requires that the vote be by the “yeas
and nays,” which in the modern House means that Members’ votes will be
recorded through the electronic voting system. The vote on the veto
override is final because, in contrast to votes on most other
questions in the House, a motion to reconsider the vote on the
question of overriding a veto is not in order.

Full rules below…

This is a big fraud if this happens. Make them pay.

We could never get away with what they're doing.

We bailed them out. This is another bail out.

They'll never learn if we let them get a pass.

I did my part.  Everybody, PUHLEEAASSE take just a moment to do this.  And no, it is not too late.  Congressional staffers tally grassroots emails up to the moment their Representative casts the vote.  If you act now, you may still affect the outcome.  Please, just take a minute to encourage your Representative to uphold President Obama's veto.  I shouldn't have to thank you for doing your patriotic duty, but I will anyway.....Thank you!

States rights are eroding as you type. 

This truly is constitutional - about corporate tax dodging, denying Main Street.

Suck it in buddy, holiday bonuses are coming up which even take precedence over your children eating cardboard from China.

Truly.

Want proof?

This august body, which can't even agree on Barney Frank's sexual prefs, could pull the 2/3rds to override.....
