A Bills Steps To Becoming A Law
*A law begins as an idea, like most things in the world today.
- Can come from a citizen or any other U.S. figure.
*A bill must have a sponsor, no sponsor will likely get that idea no where, so a bill will not be written.
*A bill must be introduced by a Representative.
*It is introduced by placing it into the U.S. House of Representatives.
*Once the bill is reviewed by the House of Representatives, it is then passed to the committee.
*They have the job to research the topic, review the topic, and revise it in any way necessary.
*It is then sent to the House after it has been reviewed to be reported.
*Once it has passed the reporting stage it is passed to the debating stage where representatives discuss and state
their opinions on the matter.
*Then, the bill is voted on
*Majority vote rules
*The Bill is referred to the Senate.
*Senators discuss and eventually vote on the matter.
*After this process it is sent to the President.
*The president decides to pass the law or veto it.
*If a bill is passed, it becomes a law.
