46、es, and to make sure that bills, passed by the House of Representatives, are not driven by narrow local interests. In England, the British have an appointed House of Lords to provide a “second sober thought“ about new laws. In America, senators are thought to do the same thing, but the primary diffe

If he signs it, it becomes law, but if he rejects it, that is to say he vetoes the bill, or refuses to sign it, or as they say, “pocket vetoes it“, it will be sent back to th
