Does the President have right to veto a bill?
Yes, unless it gets 2/3 vote then it will go straight to law without presidential approval. The above is incorrect. The president can veto any bill that crosses his desk, under the terms of the Constitution in Article I, Section 7, regardless of the vote margin in Congress. The only exception is constitutional amendments, which do not require presidential signature.
What three choices does the President have when a signed bill reaches his desk?
There are actually four options: 1. Sign the bill into law. 2. Allow the bill to become law without his signature. If the President does not sign the bill or veto it within ten days, the bill becomes law without his signature. 3. Veto the bill. The President vetoes a bill by announcing he will not sign the bill and sending it back to Congress. Usually the President's veto message indicates his objection to the bill. A veto can be overridden with a two-thirds majority vote of each House of Congress. If the veto is overridden, the bill becomes law without the President's signature. If the two-thirds vote is not reached in both Houses, the bill dies. Congress can modify the vetoed bill and send back a new bill to the President for his signature. 4. Pocket veto. If there are fewer than ten days left in the legislative session before adjournment, the President can kill a bill simply by letting the legislative calendar expire without actually vetoing it. This allows the President the option of not having the bill overridden since Congress will be out of session. This procedure is called a pocket veto.
