If I'm recalling correctly, a bill passed in both Chambers of Congress will not become law until it's either signed by the President or 30 days have passed to where the President has neither signed or vetoed the bill and a law can not be enforced retroactively.

Nobody told Clinton about that part. So, it no longer applies, apparently, to tax bills.
