A. When a bill is vetoed, the president rejects the bill.

B. When a bill is vetoed, Congress rejects the bill.

C. When a bill is vetoed, it moves from committee review to chamber review.

D. When a bill is vetoed, a committee member rejects the bill.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

**A. When a bill is vetoed, the president rejects the bill.**

When a bill is passed by Congress, it is sent to the President for approval. If the President disagrees with the bill, they can veto it, which is a formal rejection. This veto can be overridden by Congress if they pass the bill again with a two-thirds majority in both the House and Senate. If the veto is not overridden, the bill does not become law.
