for the leader, is there a message at the desk in reference to S.J. Res. 7? The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Chair lays before the Senate a communication of the Secretary of the Senate regarding that matter. The legislative clerk read as follows: United States Senate, Office of the Secretary, April 29, 2019. Hon. Michael R. Pence, President of the Senate, U.S. Senate, Washington, DC. Dear Mr. President: On Wednesday, April 17, 2019, the President of the United States sent by messenger the attached sealed envelope addressed to the President of the Senate dated April 17, 2019, said to contain a veto message on the bill S.J. Res. 7, a Joint Resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities in the Republic of Yemen that have not been authorized by Congress. The Senate not being in session on the last day which the President had for the return of this bill under the provisions of the Constitution of the United States, in order to protect the interests of the Senate so that it might have the opportunity to reconsider the bill, I accepted the message at 10:20 a.m., and I now present to you the President's veto message, with the accompanying papers, for disposition by the Senate. Respectfully, Julie E. Adams, Secretary of the Senate.
