How_A_Bill_Becomes_Law

How A Bill Becomes Law The first thing many people think of when they hear the word bill is money that they may owe to the government. When a bill is presented to the House of Representatives or the Senate it is known as a draft of a law. There are several different legislations such as bills, resolutions, and riders. There are two ways that a bill may be presented to Congress. A bill may be public or private depending on its contents. A public bill involves matters of national interest. For example, a bill may be proposed on how Humana Health care has changed its guidelines to the elderly. A private bill only applies to certain persons or places rather than the nation as a whole. A private bill may apply to the Haitian refugees that arrived to Key Biscayne. Either way they both may be presented to the House of Representatives or the Senate. Introducing a bill, as a written proposal and placing it into the hopper, a box by the clerk’s desk, may be the easiest part of trying to get a bill through the process. A sponsor then drafts and proposes the bill. The bill is then numbered and printed in the Congressional bill, house, committee, senate, law, through, sent, representatives, veto, process, private, presented, different, taken, refugees, public, proposed, president, placed, order, nation, make, interest, haitian, guidelines, goes, five, example, either, depending, debate, congressional, congress, conference, composed, calendars
