You're not looking bigger picture. A veto is almost certainly overruled here. Veto the day they send it and they vote on it and overturn the veto the next day.

This is the best option of a lot of shitty options.

The Impoundment Control Act simply requires that the President deliver his rescission notice to Congress. There is no requirement that it be attached to a bill signing.

President Trump would have been able to use rescission against funding passed into law through a veto override.
