The President can use a pocket veto on a bill if Congress is adjournment. Article 1, Section 7 of the U.S. Constitution states: If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten days ...the same shall be a Law...unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its return.
The veto and the pocket veto are two ways that the _____ can reject a bill
A pocket veto will be possible for the president only if Congress adjourns before the president has ten days to sign or veto the bill. If Congress adjourns during this period, the bill does not become law and is effectively vetoed.
A pocket veto is not a direct veto of a bill. Rather, it occurs when the president holds onto a bill, unsigned, until after Congress adjourns.
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.
The President is the one that can use a pocket veto. This type of veto happens if Congress adjourns within the 10-day period the President has to pass or veto the bill.

A pocket veto can only be used if the Congress adjourns less than 10 days after the bill was sent to the President for his signature. If they so adjourn, the president can simply put the bill in his pocket if he does not want to approve it. Ordinarily, the president must veto a bill by sending it back to Congress unsigned with his objections attached.
The two types of veto that can be carried out by the president are the "Pocket Veto" and the "Regular Veto." The Pocket Veto is where the president is given a bill, but fails to sign it within the ten days of the adjournment of Congress. The Pocket Veto is less common. The Regular Veto is one in which the president returns the bill back to Congress, with a message explaining his problems, reasons for return, and recommendations for revision. From there Congress may or may not fix it depending on it's actual importance.
