Adjusted Compensation Payment Act
The Adjusted Compensation Payment Act (January 27, 1936, ch. 32, 49 Stat. 1099), one of several pieces of legislation popularly called the "Bonus Act," was enacted when Congress overrode President Franklin D. Roosevelt's veto on January 27, 1936.
==Background==
Congress had sustained Roosevelt's previous veto of an earlier version of the bill in 1935. Called the Patman Greenback Bonus Bill, the President addressed a joint session of Congress to deliver his veto message. As he concluded his speech, he handed the unsigned bill to the Speaker of the House. Within an hour the House overrode the veto by a vote of 322 to 98. Even before the Senate sustained the veto, proponents were planning another attempt at passage.〔''New York Times'': ("Bonus Movement Swift," May 23, 1935 ), accessed December 20, 2010〕 Roosevelt argued that the program would invite demands for similar treatment by other groups and that it was not a relief bill since it was not based on the demonstrated needs of the recipients. With respect to the veterans, aside from the wounded, he said: "I hold that that able-bodied citizen because he wore a uniform and for no other reason should be accorded no treatment different from that accorded to other citizens.〔''New York Times'': ("Highlights of Bonus Veto," May 23, 1935 ), accessed December 20, 2010〕
