Hello and welcome to this day in history.
I am your host, Elise.
Let's start off with some birthdays.
Born on this day in 1840, Nez Perce, Chief Joseph,
who resisted US forces and led his people on an epic flight across the Rocky Mountains.
Alexander Graham Bell in 1847, inventor of the first practical telephone,
who also helped develop wireless telephones, metal detectors, and hydrofoil planes.
Jackie Joyner Cursey in 1962,
the American track star who overcame asthma to win six medals, including three gold,
at four different Olympic games, and me in a year that is none of your business.
But really, today we're here to talk about the veto power.
It's a way for the president to limit Congress's power by refusing to sign legislation into law.
Of course, Congress has another chance to vote on it, but it can only override the veto
with a two-thirds majority in both the House and the Senate.
That happened for the very first time on March 3rd in 1845,
when Congress overrode President John Tyler's veto of legislation aimed
at limiting the president's ability to build new ships without congressional approval.
Surprising fact, Tyler used the veto power a total of 10 times during his presidency.
Franklin D. Roosevelt vetoed the most bills, 635, over the course of his 12 years in office.
Also on this day in history, in 1820, the Missouri Compromise was passed.
In 1887, Helen Keller met her teacher Anne Sullivan.
And in 1931, the star-spangled banner officially became the U.S. National Anthem.
Thanks so much for listening, and that's all for today in history tune in tomorrow
to learn a little bit more about the world around you.
