Congress can force a bill into law without the president’s signature by overriding a veto. This requires a two-thirds majority in both the House and the Senate.
If the president ignores the bill while Congress is in session, it becomes law after 10 days. If Congress has adjourned, the bill dies. That specific scenario is called a pocket veto.
