override veto
After a bill passes both Houses of Congress it goes to the President for the final signature.
Bills are written by legislation. After they are written, they are the proposed in congress. If the bill passes congress, it is then an official bill or law.
When Congress passes a bill in spite of a President's veto it's called overriding the veto. To override a Presidential veto requires a 2/3rds vote of each house, the Senate and the House of Representatives
"general assembly" is a term usually applied to a state legislature. The Governor of most states, if not all, has veto power.
When Congress passes a bill and the president then uses his power of veto the bill can go through Congress again. If both houses then vote 2/3 or more the second time for the bill then it passes and becomes law.

I have never heard it called anything but a bill signing. If it is a important bill, they have a signing ceremony and the president may use several pens so they can be given out as souvenirs.
The president's ability to kill a bill by holding it for ten days while Congress is not in session is called a pocket veto. This occurs when the president does not sign the bill into law and also does not return it to Congress with objections within the ten-day period. As a result, the bill does not become law and is effectively vetoed.
the president sings it.
