A law is passed when both houses of Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate) approve a bill. It then goes the the President for his signature, and he can do one of four things: He can sign the bill, and so pass it into law; he can veto the bill, which then sends it back to Congress to see if they have the votes (2/3 majority) to override the veto and pass the bill anyway; he can do nothing when Congress is in session, and the bill will be passed into law ten days later without his approval; or he can do nothing when Congress will adjourn within ten days, after which the bill is dead (this is known as a pocket veto).
