If Biden’s veto means he’s taking on the GOP House … then how did this bill pass the Democrat-controlled Senate?

A bill only needs a majority in the House and in the Senate to pass. It is then sent to the president to sign it into law or veto it. If the president vetoes it, it goes back to Congress, where a 2/3 majority of Congress must vote to override the presidential veto.

Exactly. Surcharge nonsense they write.
