Trump just invoked the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 while signing the COVID bill, allowing him to redline areas that must be addressed. He can hold and allocate funds where he wants for 45 days. Considering only 6 went against it in the first place, they could possibly override the veto easily. The Pocket Veto he went with, obviously, which is a great delay...but again, if it sits for too long, it automatically becomes law. He put congress in a box to:

1. repeal 230,
2. cut out the wasteful spending,
3. add $2k as opposed to $600
