Every day I check to see if Trump has signed Fosta yet

https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/115/hr1865?utm_campaign=govtrack_email_update&utm_source=govtrack/email_update&utm_medium=email

I was wondering what happens if the president does not sign or veto a bill?

So I started researching,

Pocket Veto. If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law.

Now if I am understanding this right, it looks like they arent back in session again until April 10th, so would this mean if he doesn’t sign it by tomorrow which is 10 days after March 21st when it passed the Senate that it wouldn’t be a law? or how do we know how long after passing the Senate that they took to send it to the president? Could it be that he doesn’t have the balls to veto it, so the plan is to let it die because Congress isn’t in session?

So if it dies and they aren’t in session again Until April 10th, can they get the 2/3 vote from both chambers after April 10th, to allow it to become law. Or does their time run out for that in 10 days too.
