__________________________

The president can veto a bill, but as seen while Chester Arthur was president, particularly the River and Harbor Act, Congress overrode the veto and passed legislation the next day. The president can veto a bill, but to some extent is his veto accounted for.

In the US, the President can "veto" a bill passed by Congress, preventing it from becoming law. However, a vetoed bill is returned to Congress, and may be overridden by a two-thirds vote in both houses. The bill then becomes law.

A "pocket veto" may be used by the President to block a bill that is passed shortly before the adjournment of Congress. If Congress is no longer in session, the bill cannot be overridden. This is so named because the President, rather than vetoing and returning the bill, "pockets" or keeps it.

Only the president can veto legislation before it becomes law. After it becomes law, the supreme court can declare it unconstitutional and therefore null and void, but

the term "veto" is not used for this action.
