PRESIDENTIAL STATEMENTS.

The last step before a bill becomes a law is that the President must sign the bill. Often a president
will release a statement concerning the bill concurrent with the signing of the bill. These
statements are also part of the ‘legislative history' of a particular bill that has been enacted into
law. Similarly, the President will often release a statement when he or she vetoes a piece of
legislation.
