If the President vetoes a bill, it can be passed over his objection by a vote of 2/3 of each house of Congress. This is known as "overriding" the President's veto, and in this case, the bill becomes law even without the President's veto.
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
