When the president is presented with a passed bill, he has several options: he can sign the bill into law, allowing it to take effect; he can veto the bill, rejecting it and sending it back to Congress with his objections; he can choose to take no action for ten days while Congress is in session, which results in the bill automatically becoming law; or he can use a pocket veto by not signing it while Congress is adjourned, effectively preventing it from becoming law.
