Question

Suppose a bill has passed both the House and the Senate. It goes to the president at the beginning of the annual session of Congress. The president doesn't sign the bill but holds it for more than 10 days. What happens to the bill? A. It has been vetoed. B. It becomes law only if two-thirds of the House and Senate vote for it. C. It becomes law. D. It cannot become law, but it has not been vetoed

Answer 1

The answer is C. It becomes a law. The reason it becomes a law is because the President didnt sign it but he also didnt send it back to congress, meaning he might dislike the law but he doesnt want to fight it. B is the wrong answer because the bill never gets sent back to Congress to get voted on.

Answer 2

The answer is B, It becomes law only if two-thirds of the House and Senate vote for it.
