False. The Constitution gives Congress the ability to override a presidential veto, but only if at least 2/3 of the members of both the House and the Senate vote to do so. Otherwise, a presidential veto kills the bill.

Each chamber must have a 2/3rds vote in order to override a presidential veto. Congress rarely overrides a presidential veto.
The Virginia Plan Proposed this process of undoing a veto
The presidential veto was a part of the original Constitution written by the Founding Fathers. Although the constitution does not state that the President has veto powers, the President has to sign legislation into law. This in effect is a veto. However if the President does not sign into law a piece of legislation within 10 days then he is constitutionally required to send it back to Congress with his objections in writing.
congress has overruled a presidential veto about 200 times
67 senators and 291 members of the house have to vote to override the presidential veto
The legislative branch has the power to override a presidential veto. Overriding the veto requires a two-thirds vote margin. Article 1, Section 7 of the US Constitution describes the power to veto.
There is no such thing as the constitutional status of the so-called presidential line-item veto. It was proposed but never confirmed to be constitutional, rather, the Constitution makes no provision for such a privilege.
A presidential veto.
