Question: how long does the president have to sign legislation
Answer: When the President is presented the bill , they can either sign it into law , return the bill to the originating house of Congress with their objections to the bill ( a veto ) , or neither sign nor return it to Congress after having been presented the bill for ten days exempting Sundays ( if Congress is still in session , the bill becomes a law ; otherwise , the bill does not become a law and is considered a pocket veto ) .
