After a bill passes both houses in the Arkansas state legislature, what needs to happen before it can become a law?

After a bill passes both houses in the Arkansas state legislature, it needs to be sent to the governor for approval. The governor can either sign the bill into law or veto it. If the governor signs the bill, it becomes a law. If the governor vetoes the bill, the legislature can override the veto with a two-thirds majority vote in both houses.
