The U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation that would give tuition vouchers to some students in the District of Columbia for use at private and parochial schools. The Senate has already approved the measure, which would give $3,200 to about 2,000 children from low-income families. President Clinton has promised to veto the bill, and congressional leaders say they lack the two- thirds majority needed to override his veto.
