The President returns the unsigned legislation to the originating house of Congress within a 10 day period usually with a memorandum of disapproval or a “veto message.” Congress can override the President's decision if it musters the necessary two–thirds vote of each house.
Yes and no. The president doesn't have a "vote" but he does have a "veto." Congress is the legislative branch of the US government, which means they make the laws. When a bill is passed by both houses, it then goes to the president for his signature. But the president does not have to sign it: if he is opposed to that particular bill, he can veto it. However, that isn't the end. Congress can then try to over-ride his veto, and if they are successful (they need a 2/3 majority in both houses), the bill will become a law whether the president supported it or not.
Yes. It's called a Veto, but it must be sent back, unsigned, with the reasons for the overrule, back to Congress. If a majority of 2/3rds of both houses disagree with it, the bill can become law without the president's approval.
In the US, yes, the President can refuse to sign a bill into law. This is a veto. If the Congress can pass the law by a two/thirds majority, it becomes the law regardless of the President's desire.
Congress can vote to pass a bill with 2/3 vote of the House and 3/4 vote of the Senate.If he does something without congress they can investigate the matter by special committees or write and pass a law in response.
Yes, but it has to be a 2/3rds majority from both houses
yes, 2/3 of the congress can override a presidential decision.
67 members of the senate and 291 members of the house vote to override the president
Yes
A vote by a two-thirds majority can override the President's veto. That is, after the President vetoes a bill, a majority vote of 2/3 can force that bill into law.art 1 sec 7
I will tell you the process for a bill to become a law. Citizens find a problem or a want and tells their representative. He then takes it to congress and they vote on it. If it passes, it goes to the president. That is called a bill. If it doesn't pass the whole thing is scraped. If the president doesn't like the bill it goes back to congress. They vote again and if so many people vote yes they over rule the president and it becomes a law. If they don't vote yes the whole bill is scraped. You can stop this early if the president says yes the first time around.
Congress has to pass a law before it goes to the President. The President can veto the law. Congress can then over rule the president with a 2/3rds majority.
No, Pay is set by Congress. The only vote the president has is his own individual vote just like any other citizen. The power he does have over Congress is the VETO. So, he can't vote himself a raise, but he can veto a pay cut!
Congress. If there is a 3/4 majority vote, Congress can override a presidential veto.
The citizens vote for the President AND Congress.
Yes. "voting out" is known as vetoing. The President can eject a bill and send it back to Congress without it becoming law. Congress can still pass it over his veto via a 2/3 vote.
no. a two-thirds vote is necessary for Congress to override the president's veto.
No one can "veto" the President, but the Congress can "over-ride' his veto by a 2/3 vote to pass a bill he vetoed.
No. The president is the ceo of the United States and the vice president presides over the senate, but has no vote execept to break a tie.
if he vetos a bill they can over vote him and pass it. But if he lets it sit for 10 days it will die.
2/3 of the congress must vote to override a veto from the president.
