Question

question 1 - 31
the president and congress have different views on climate change. congress sent the president a bill requiring all cars made in the united states to be electric. the president vetoed the bill. which step is required to pass the bill over the presidents veto?
approval of bill by a majority of supreme - court justices
approval of bill by two - thirds of each house of congress
approval of bill by three - quarters of the state legislatures
approval of bill by a small majority of each house of congress

Explanation:

In the U.S. system of government, to override a presidential veto, a bill must be approved by two - thirds of each house of Congress. This is a key part of the system of checks and balances. The other options are incorrect as the Supreme Court is not involved in the process of overriding a veto, and the required majority in Congress is two - thirds, not a simple majority or a vote by state legislatures for this particular action.

Answer:

B. approval of bill by two - thirds of each house of Congress
