How does a bill become law?

Can you explain how a bill becomes a law in the United States?

Sure! A bill goes through several steps: it is introduced, debated, voted on, and then sent to the President.

What happens if the President vetoes the bill?

If the President vetoes a bill, Congress can override the veto with a two-thirds majority vote in both houses.

Are there any other ways a bill can become law?

Yes, a bill can also become law if the President does not sign it within 10 days while Congress is in session.

What role do committees play in this process?

Committees review, amend, and vote on bills before they reach the full chamber for debate.
