Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The process for overriding a veto can be found in Article I Section 7 of the Constitution

"...or being disapproved by him, shall be repassed by two thirds of the Senate and House of Representatives..."

This basically means that if the President were to veto a bill, both the House and the Senate will each need two thirds of its members to override the veto and pass the bill.
