What happens to a bill if the president uses a pocket veto?

It is dead, just as if he had used the traditional veto. There is one major difference. A bill that is pocket vetoed does not automatically go back to Congress for consideration of an override of the veto. Such a bill must be re-introduced as a new bill at the start of the next Congressional session. Then it gets treated as a new bill, meaning it canbe passed by simple majority, sent to the president for approval and vetoed (or not) in the usual fashion. Then it goes back to Congress for consideration of an override of the veto.


What is the difference in the effects between a pocket veto and a normal veto registered by the president?

With a "regular" veto, the president prevents it from becoming a law by withholding his signature and returning it to Congress; with a pocket veto he also withholds his signature, but does so when Congress has adjourned and has not designated a legal agent to receive veto or other messages (as at the end of a two-year congress). This is a pocket veto, and the bill dies after 10 days of being submitted to the president. A pocket veto applies only when the Congress is not in session.

How are presidential vetos overriden?

Answer Yes, it requires a two-thirds majority in each house of congress. It's almost impossible to do, because of the two-thirds majority it requires. You'll hear of bills that passed with veto-proof majorities. These are very rare today. A bill that passed with a veto-proof majority is one so popular more than two-thirds of each house voted to approve it. Which, of course, means the bill contains spending for each Member's district. These rare bills are normally signed by the President because Presidents hate having vetoes overturned.

What does veto power allow a President to do?

The president of the US can veto any legislation passed by Congress. Congress has the right to then forget the bill, modify it and hope the president will sign it on the next try, or try to override the veto with super-majorities in both houses. The president of the US does not have the right to veto specific things within a bill. He must accept or decline the entire bill. There is a tricky workaround with financial bills with more than one line item, where the president can tell Congress he is signing the bill but refusing to fund a specific part of it.
