What happens if the president doesn't sign a bill in time allowed?

Answer 1

After the president vetoes a bill it returns to it's House of origin. If there are enough objections to the vetoing of the bill the House and Senate vote on it. A 2/3 majority from both will override the veto.

Answer 2

The bill is vetoed. However, the bill can still become a law if Congress overrides the veto with a 2/3 vote. If the president initially does nothing, no signature or veto, the bill automatically becomes law after 10 days, excluding Sundays, if Congress is still in session. If after 10 days Congress is NOT in session, then the bill dies. This is called a pocket veto.

Answer 3

It becomes law without the president's signature in 10 days (excluding Sundays) unless Congress adjourns during this 10-day period in which case the bill dies. If the bill dies because Congress was not in session to receive the vetoed bill, that is called a "pocket veto."

Answer 4

If the President takes no action within 10 days, it is considered to be a Veto of the Bill by the President.

It is called a 'Pocket Veto,' implying the President shoving the Bill into his pocket and ignored it.

Answer 5

The bill automatically becomes a law if congress is still in session after the President has had 10 days to consider it.

Answer 6

it automatically becomes law, as long as Congress is still in session
