then it becomes law without signature if not vetoed

As I recall, if the President does not sign within a certain amount of time, it becomes a veto, what is referred to as a "pocket veto".

Thanks for dusting off these old brain cells. They say the memory goes first, cant remember what goes next! Pocket veto by letting legislation expire.

DS/Derps - like trying to fish or cut bait........ sign / no sign.

Still WINNING BIGLEY!

I think that depends on whether Congress is in session or out of session during the 10-day interval.
