Question

Explain how a bill that originates in the Senate becomes a law by writing a summary of the process. Be sure to include the roles of standing committees, both chambers of Congress, conference committees, and the president.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1: Bill is introduced

Step 2: The bill  goes to a committee  for review [Every bill faces its first test when it is  reviewed by a Standing Committee. Select Committees are formed to perform  investigations into problems of national importance.]

Step 3: The bill  goes to the floor  for a vote in one  house. [The bill goes to the "floor" of the house where  it was submitted for a debate. After the debate is finished, the house then  votes on the bill.]

Step 4 – The bill  goes to the other  house for another  vote

Step 5 – The bill  goes to a conference  committee

Step 6: The last step is for the bill to come down to the  presidents decision on whether the bill is good enough  to be a law. If the president thinks the bill is a good  idea they will sign the bill making it an official law.
