What is the President's power to reject a bill known as?

  1. Filibuster

  2. Impeachment

  3. Veto

  4. Executive Order

The correct answer is: Veto

The President's power to reject a bill is known as a veto. A filibuster is a tactic used in the Senate to delay or block legislation. Impeachment is the process of charging a government official with misconduct. An executive order is a directive or instruction issued by the President without legislative approval. As such, none of these options accurately reflect the President's power to reject a bill. Veto is the only term that specifically refers to the President's authority to reject a bill passed by Congress.
