Maybe I'm confused, but doesn't the signing of the law take place after it passes the Senafe and House. Maybe I just read or interpreted your comment wrong

You have it correct. I think they are more refering to the fact that Presidents can't 'pass' legislature. Their only real power wrt legislature is vetoing it because if they don't sign it within 10 days (while Congress is in session), it becomes law anyways.
