But

17、 even if the bill is passed in Congress, it still doesnt become a law until the President has a chance to review it, too. And if its not to the Presidents liking, the bill can be vetoed(否决)or killed in either of two ways. One is by a veto message. The President has ten days to veto the bill by retur

18、ning it to Congress, along with the message explaining why its being rejected. This keeps the bill from becoming a law unless overwhelming majorities of both Houses of Congress vote to over-right the Presidents veto. Sometimes they do that. Often, lawmakers simply revise the vetoed bill and pass it

19、again. This time, in the form the President is less likely to object to, and less likely to want to veto. The other way the President can kill a bill is by pocket veto(搁置否决权). Heres what happens. If the President doesnt sign the bill within ten days, and Congress adjourns during that time, then the

20、bill will not become law. Notice that it is only at the end of an entire session of Congress that the pocket veto can be used, not just whenever Congress takes a shorter break, say, for a summer vacation. After a pocket veto, that particular bill is dead. If a lawmaker in Congress wants to push the

30、es faith in their country, faith that had weakened as the result of the depression.
