What is the term for the formal approval of a proposed law by the President in the United States?

Ratification.
Judicial review.
Veto.
Signing into law.

The correct answer is: Signing into law.

The term for the formal approval of a proposed law by the President in the United States is called "Signing into law". This term refers to the final step in the legislative process, where the President approves and signs the bill into law, making it a official and enforceable. The other options, ratification, judicial review, and veto, are all important components of the legislative process, but they do not specifically refer to the President's role in approving a law. Ratification typically refers to the process of approving a constitutional amendment, while judicial review is the power of the courts to declare a law unconstitutional. Veto, on the other hand, is the power of the President to reject a bill passed by Congress. Therefore, while these options may be related to the process of approving laws, they are not the correct term for the President's role in this process.
