"The President is so desperate that he is ready to fight counterfeit veto Bill to help students above the vnmazg is advocated cutting its budget. It is just like this: Republicans are working to help students and the President get through today, "said Michael steel, speaker of the House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.

It is in contrast to that a democratic Bill extending the student rates low by cutting subsidies for oil and gas natural, which is not supported by the party.
