Question

In order for a bill to become law at the federal level, which of these must occur?

Answer 1

If a bill has passed in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate and has been approved by the President, or if a presidential veto has been overridden, the bill becomes a law and is enforced by the government.

Answer 2

If a bill has been passed in both the house and the senate, it is then sent to the president for signature. The president have the veto power, he can veto the bill if he considers it to be unwise, If the congress is in session then the bill automatically becomes the law after ten days. If the president takes no action then pocket veto occurs and if the congress has adjourned its session then the bill dies without becoming a law. If the president signs the bill, then it becomes a law.
