I'm pretty sure that's a veto
A bill starts off as an idea, which can come from anyone. Then it gets shipped off to Congress where they vote on it. If the Senate and House Of Representatives votes yes to the bill it is sent to the president for him to sign. If the president rejects the bill, or vetos it, the bill can go back to Congress and if two-thirds vote yes to the bill it can become a law without the presidents approval.
First of all, it is nearly impossible for the President or his staff to 'forget' about any piece of legeslation. After 10 days, defined by the Constitution, the President excersises a 'pocket veto.' This means, if the President does not sign by the 10th day, the bill is rejected by the Executive Branch and is sent back to congress. If both houses of congress have 2/3 of its members to vote for the bill, they can override the Presidents veto and make the bill a law without the approval of the President. In short, if the President ignores a bill for 10 days, he automatically vetos, and rejects the bill. Therefore, 'forgetting' about a bill, does not make it a law for him to worry about.
