Summary:

The pocket vetoes by Presidents Bush and Clinton were unusual in the sense that the vetoes were returned to Congress. Evidently the inter- and intrasession adjournments by Congress did not prevent the return of the vetoes. If the President returned these "pocket vetoes," could Congress attempt an override? The answer is that Congress several times has taken override votes on these types of pocket vetoes. The scope of the pocket veto power has been left largely to practice and to political understandings developed by the executive and legislative branches.
