The power to prohibit an act from becoming a law is called "veto power." Typically exercised by an executive authority, such as a president or governor, this power allows them to reject legislation passed by the legislative body. The vetoed legislation may still become law if the legislature overrides the veto, usually requiring a supermajority vote.
