Yes, but not necessarily.
Article I, Section 7 of the United States Constitution
"If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the same shall be a Law, in like manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its return, in which case it shall not be a Law."
Therefore if Congress is still in session after the President's ten day signing period expires and the President does not return the law to Congress (ostensibly with a veto or signing it), it becomes law by default. If Congress is not in session on the appropriate day, it becomes vetoed by default.
Congress can make a vetoed bill law by passing it with a 2/3 majority in both houses.
Yes. The decision is made by the congress.
Congress can override the veto.
Yes.
When the president signs the bill, it becomes law. If the president refuses, the bill is vetoed, but if a two thirds vote by Congress, it can still become law.
If the Congress is still in session, the bill becomes a law after 10 days even if the President has not signed it or vetoed it. If the President vetoed the bill, Congress has to override the veto in order for it to become a law. If the President has not signed the bill within 10 days and the Congress is not in session, it does not become a law. This is called a "pocket veto."
It was pocket vetoed by President lincoln.
No- he does not have to sign a bill passed over his veto.
Andrew Johnson vetoed the post-Civil War bill.
passed again by two-thirds of both houses of Congress
A veto bill doesn't become law unless congress overrides the veto. It takes 2/3 vote to override a veto.
It has to be passed by both houses of Congress before it can be vetoed by the President. In most cases, Congress may then re-consider the bill and if it is then passed by a 2/3 vote in each house, it will become law.
no. the president is the third part it has to go through. but if he vetoed it they can override him.
James Madison
When a President vetoes a bill, he sends it back to Congress with his objections instead of signing it into law. The word "veto" is not used in the Constitution, but has become the term used to describe a President's rejection of a bill.
The word bill is a noun, and the word "vetoed" is an adjective. It means not accepted by the executive (e.g. the president).
