The chart on the next page tracks the route that a bill takes as it moves through congress. label each box or briefly describe what happens at that stage in the legislative process. there are 10 boxes on the chart. you will receive 1 point for each correctly filled-in box, with a maximum score of 8 points.

As the chart shows, a bill is introduced either in the House or in the Senate, although money bills have to be introduced in the House only, after the introduction the following steps are taken.

1- Drafting the bill and Introducing the bill: Elaborating the bill by congress people,senators or even outsiders and then only members tof the House can introduce the bill for formal processes.

2- Action of the committee: Most bills do not pass this stage. The committee can make any arrangements that are regarded necessary.

4- Stablishing Rules and Floor Action: The bill goes for general debate in the house adn then the House debates and votes the bill, if the bill gets the majority it goes to the Senate.

5- Introducing the bill to the Senate and Committee Action: Just like the Floor Action,but now in the Senate.

6- Bill is called up: If the bill passes the commitee it is exposed to the whole Senate.

7- Floor Action: More debates aned possible changes in the Senate. If it passes, it returns to the House.

8- Conference Committee and Vote on the committee: If there is any kind of rejection, it goes to a conference committee composed of members of both Houses to workon compromises, afterwards, both Houses have to accept the changes that were made, if the bill is approved, it finally goes to presidential appraisal.

9- Presidential Action: The president may sign (approve) or decline (veto) the bill, if it is signed it becomes a law.

10- Vote to Override: If the president vetos the bill, it can still become a law if 2/3 of both Houses votes to override the presidential veto.
