I am curious about the legislative veto process. As it is now, if a bill passes the House it goes to the Senate. If it passes the Senate, it then goes to the President for his signature. What I would like to know is what is the veto override threshold, and if it is over ridden, will it become law? If after the mid term elections the Republicans take the House and the Senate, what margins will be required for a Biden veto to be over ridden and become law. Hope springs eternal!

Not to worry..the Rinocans won’t attempt to pass anything of note.

This is all academic since the Republicans won’t do anything with their majorities.

Here’s an example of a RINO controlled senate overriding one of our greatest presidents:

If I recall, 2/3 majorities in both Houses override veto.

An entire replacement of every Assistant Democrat, plus the removal of every Democrat.

Too high a bar for the American voter.

[Robert DeLong]

2/3 of each House of Congress. If veto is overridden it becomes law.

Congress can override a veto by passing the act by a two-thirds vote in both the House and the Senate. (Usually an act is passed with a simple majority.) This check prevents the President from blocking an act when significant support for it exists.
