Congress cannot override the president's veto but must rewrite the legislation to his liking.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If the president vetoes a bill, Congress can attempt to override the veto with a two-thirds vote in both the House and Senate. If they are successful, the bill becomes law without the president’s signature. If they are not able to override the veto, the bill does not become law unless Congress decides to rewrite it and pass it again with the president’s approval or with a veto-proof majority.
