President Obama plans to veto 9/11 victims bill

  • 8 years ago
President Barack Obama is expected to veto a bill that would allow terror victims of the attacks on September 11, 2001, to sue Saudi Arabia. It's not hard to imagine other countries using this law as an excuse to haul U.S. diplomats, U.S. service members or even U.S. companies into courts all around the world. Congressional leaders have already suggested they would try to override a veto, and probably have sufficient support in both chambers to do so.
