The main legislative body of the United States is Congress, which consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate. All Bills must be presented to both the House of Representatives and the Senate for approval. Both the House and Senate must approve the exact proposed Bill before it can be presented to the President for signature or veto. The President has the right to refuse to sign any Bill. The President has 10 days (excluding Sundays) to return objections to Congress of any Bill presented for signature. If the President fails to return the Bill to Congress within 10 days, then it becomes law as if it had been signed. "Pocket Veto": Congress has the right to prevent a Bill's return by adjournment. In this case, the Bill cannot become law even if the President has not sent objections to Congress. The extent of "Pocket Veto" authority is disputable and it has not yet been determined by US courts. ("Pocket Veto" excerpt from www.out-law.com)
