Any member of either house of congress can present a bill to congress. A bill is a proposed law. Many congressmen present bills to please his constituents when he knows there is no possibility the bill will be passed. Many times the House will pass one version of a Bill that it does not like and the Senate will pass another version of the same Bill that it does not like. The two will never become reconciled because in reality, neither house really wants them but must pass them for political reasons. For a bill to become law, both houses must pass the same bill and at the Federal Level, the President must sign it (or at the state level, in most states, the governor must sign it). So a bill is a law before it becomes a law.
