Pocket vetoes occur when the President receives a bill but is unable to reject and return the bill to an adjourned Congress within the 10-day period. The bill, though lacking a signature and formal objections, does not become law. Pocket vetoes are not subject to the congressional veto override process.
If the Governor vetoes the bill, a two-thirds vote in each house is needed to override the veto. The Governor's Office releases veto messages which explain the veto; these messages are available from the Governor's Office and on the Internet. A wealth of legislative information is now available on the Internet.
Congress can override a veto by passing the act by a two-thirds vote in both the House and the Senate. (Usually an act is passed with a simple majority.) This check prevents the President from blocking an act when significant support for it exists.

A special session is a meeting of a group of people, such as a government or organization, that is called for a specific purpose or issue. It is different from a regular session, which happens on a regular schedule.

Common reasons for a governor to call a special session include responding to economic downturns or other fiscal problems; federal legislation; disasters; and war. Some special sessions addressed more than one of these issues.
The special session will focus on bolstering California legal resources to protect civil rights, reproductive freedom, climate action, and immigrant families.
