3. How a bill becomes a law?
A bill is introduced into the House or Senate.
The Bill is sent to a committee that studies it and proposes amendments.
The bill is voted on. If it passes it goes to the other house and the process repeats itself.
If the bill passes, it will be sent to the president/governor and becomes law.
If the bill does not pass, it is sent to the original house where it started and changes are made and voted on. If the bill passes, it becomes law.
