all colors and creeds from across america and around the world. >> reporter: if president obama vetoes the bill congress may have the votes to over-ride his veto. the timing of the bill's approval by the house is not coincidence. families of the 9/11 victims reportedly wanted the legislation passed before 15th anniversary tomorrow. reena, the annual commemorative ceremony will be held here at the 9/11 memorial plaza at the rebuilt world trade center. >> ninan: marlie hall, thanks. hillary clinton and donald trump are expected to attend the memorial service in lower manhattan. both candidates have pledged not to campaign on september 11 the day of reflection following a new round of heated rhetoric. errol barnett has more from washington. >> to be grossly generallistic, you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables.
