Only representatives can introduce bills in the House of Representatives. Ideas can come from representatives or citizens. Once the bill is "introduced" then a clerk (bill clerk) will give it a number and then another clerk (reading clerk) will read the bill(s) to the representatives. Then the bill goes to a standing committee ( a committee in the House or Senate that will consider bills in a certain subject area).
