Pocket veto, the killing of legislation by a chief executive through a failure to act within a specified period following the adjournment of the legislature. In the United States, if the president does not sign a bill within 10 days of its passage by Congress, it automatically becomes law. However, if Congress adjourns within the 10-day period and the president does not sign the bill, it is automatically vetoed, and the veto is absolute. The latter action is referred to as a pocket veto.

So the question on the table is, when did the 10 day period start ? Monday when both Houses passed the bill ? Or when the President RECEIVES the bill - lots of news sites are suggesting the latter.
