The President
President
In the US, a bill sent from the US Congress to the president. The president can then sign the bill into law. At the state level there is the same principle. The state legislature passes a bill and the state governor can sign the bill into law. This system has worked well for the US in its history.
It is introduced in the house or senate
The legislature passes it and sends it to the Governor's desk where it can be signed and passed into law, or vetoed and sent back to either be moidified or passed, over the Governor's objections.
state legislature
the 1st bill sent
The bill goes to the house of representatives
The same was as in every other state. A state representative introduces a bill in the legislature - it is debated - it is passed - it is sent to the Governor - who either signs it or vetoes it. If he signs it, it becomes law.
After a bill passes both Houses of Congress it goes to the President for the final signature.
After it passes both houses of congress.
It is then sent to the Senate for their consideration, unless the bill has already been passed by the Senate, in which case, it is sent to the President.
The Congress passes a bill, not a law. The bill goes to the President. If the President signs the bill, it becomes a law. If he refuses to sign the bill, it is called a veto and the bill is not made law and is sent back.
Answered by Reid Breitman. This is for information only and you should consult a lawyer before relying on anything on the internet. The president does not pass a bill. That is the domain of the legislature. A bill is drafted and proposed by the legislature, and then they vote on it. If the legislature passes the bill, it is then sent to the President, who can either sign the bill, thus allowing it to become a law, or he or she can veto the bill, thus killing it and sending it back to the legislature. But the legislature can then override the veto by voting again and passing the law by a 2/3rds vote.
