The president of the United States is the head of the executive branch and plays a large role in making America's laws. His job is to approve the laws that Congress creates. When both chambers have approved a bill, they send it to the president. In order for the bill to become law, the president must sign it into law. The president can decide not to sign a bill if he does not want it to become law.

What is it called when the president refuses to sign a bill into law?

A refusal
B veto ******
C denial
D rejection

B I think please help

Right

You are correct.

A veto is usually an active decision, though, not just refusing to sign a bill into law. The president usually actively vetoes and explains why, sometimes asking the Congress to rework the bill so it becomes more acceptable, sometimes just rejecting it, period.

You are correct, the answer is B. Veto. When the president refuses to sign a bill into law, it is called a veto. This is an important power that the president has to prevent a bill from becoming law. However, a presidential veto can be overridden by Congress if both the Senate and the House of Representatives vote with a two-thirds majority to pass the bill anyway, despite the president's objections.
