The length of time the information remains on your report depends upon how it was reported in the first place: collection accounts stay for seven years, and public records last on your report for ten years.
Or it can be limited, as in the legislative process of the United States, where a two-thirds vote in both the House and Senate may override a Presidential veto of legislation.

The concept of a veto body originated with the Roman consuls and tribunes.
I made it clear to Congress and to the American people that I will not allow our nation to cross this moral line.. Bush's veto marks the third of his presidency and the second veto on a stem cell bill. Democrats don't have enough votes to override the veto.
