What happens when a president doesn’t return a bill in 10 days and what is the exception to that rule?.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Here's what will happen if the President does not return a bill and refuses to sign it:

- It means the President is effectively exercising their veto power.

- Yet, unless the Congress isn't in session during those ten (10) days, the bill will automatically become a law, though.

- The U.S. Constitution states that a vetoed bill may still become law if Congress overrides the president's decision with a supermajority vote of two-thirds of members of both the House and the Senate.

What is this veto power anyway?

To veto means to forbid or temporarily prohibit the execution of projects that have been attempted. However, since we're discussing the President's and the legislative branch's authority, vetoing refers to stopping a bill or the implementation of legislation passed by a legislature from becoming law, either permanently or temporarily.
