Who can override a presidential veto?

A presidential veto can be overridden by Congress if both the House of Representatives and the Senate achieve a two-thirds majority vote in favor of the legislation. This process is outlined in the U.S. Constitution and is intended to ensure that a strong consensus is needed to counter the President's decision. The two-thirds vote acts as a significant check on presidential power, allowing Congress to prioritize its legislative agenda even against a veto.

Other options are not able to override a veto. The Senate alone does not have the authority, since both chambers of Congress need to be involved in the override process. The Supreme Court does not have a role in the legislative process and cannot intervene in a presidential veto. The Vice President does not possess the authority to override a veto either; their primary function in the legislative context is to cast votes in the event of a tie in the Senate.
