C. It becomes law only if two-thirds of the House and Senate vote for it.
D. It cannot become law, but it has not been vetoed.

Respuesta :

If the president doesn't sign the bill but holds it for more than 10 days then "B. It becomes law" as long as Congress is still in session. If not, then it becomes a "pocket veto".
