Gramm-Leach-Bliley and the Commodities Futures Modernization Act.

Both Gramm-Leach-Bliley and the CFMA would have passed without Clinton's signature. Are you saying he should have vetoed them and had his veto overruled?

"On November 4, the final bill resolving the differences was passed by the Senate 90-8 [7] and by the House 362-57.[8] This legislation was signed into law by Democratic President Bill Clinton on November 12, 1999.[9]"

"157 Democrats and 133 Republicans voted for the appropriations bill. 51 Republicans and 9 Democrats opposed the appropriations bill vote results in the house. The Senate version passed by "Unanimous Consent." President Clinton signed it into Public Law (106-554) on December 21, 2000."
