Congressman Nathaniel Moran (TX-01) released the following statement after voting to override President Biden’s first veto – H.J.Res.30:

“President Biden’s first veto signifies his refusal to work on behalf of the American people – instead, choosing to pursue his own ‘woke’ ESG agenda. H.J.Res.30 passed both the House of Representatives and the Senate by majority votes, representing the values of a majority of Americans. While I am disappointed in the President’s veto, I am not surprised – the Biden Administration has routinely worked against our small businesses in favor of his own corrupt agenda. Last night, I voted to override the President’s veto in support of East Texas families and their businesses. I will continue to fight against these harmful policies and in favor of legislation that uplifts our family-owned businesses and the hardworking Americans who have spent decades diligently serving their community.”
