Question

1. 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 run on electricity. the president vetoed the bill. which step is required to pass the bill over the president’s veto? a. approval of the bill by a majority of each house of congress b. approval of the bill by a majority of supreme court justices c. approval of the bill by two - thirds of each house of congress d. approval of the bill by three - quarters of the state legislatures

Explanation:

According to the U.S. Constitution, to override a presidential veto, Congress must pass the bill again with a two - thirds majority in each house. Option A only mentions a simple majority, which is not sufficient. The Supreme Court (Option B) is not involved in the veto - override process for regular legislation. Option D is related to the constitutional amendment ratification process (in one of the two methods), not veto overrides.

Answer:

C. approval of the bill by two - thirds of each house of Congress
