"He offered to work with lawmakers and the offices of the former presidents to change the bill in ways that would eventually earn his signature.

The legislation sets an annual allowance of $200,000 a year for travel, staff and office costs that have become a standard part of life after the Oval Office. For former presidents who make money through books, speaking fees and other ventures, the allowance is reduced by $1 for every dollar in outside income above $400,000."
