The correct answers are C) The Senate must pass the exact same bill on the floor as the House and D) A bill passed in one chamber that is changed in committee in the second chamber, must both approve the conference report for any changes made to the original bill passed.

For a bill to pass both chambers (the House of Representatives and the Senate are called chambers), the following must occur: The Senate must pass the exact same bill on the floor as the House and a bill passed in one chamber that is changed in committee in the second chamber, must both approve the conference report for any changes made to the original bill passed.

In the United States, a bill becomes law following these steps:

First, a member of Congress introduces a bill. The piece of legislation is referred to as the appropriate committee. Then, it is placed on the calendar of the house to be debated. This is when the bill gets to the Floor. The House of Representatives debated and the n, the Senate debate. If there are differences, a conference committee meets and reach an agreement. Then Congress passes the bill to the Executive to sign it. The President can veto the bill and is returned to Congress. If the President signs the bill, it became law.
