What else can I help you with?
Is their a way a bill in the senate can be passed with only 50 votes?
I am assuming you mean if the 100 members of the Senate were to vote 50 in favor of a bill and 50 against it. In that case, it would be the responsibility of the President of the Senate, who is the Vice President of the United States, to cast the tie breaking vote. Assuming the Vice President voted in favor of the bill, it would pass. By the way, the only time the Vice President is allowed to vote is to break ties.

How does the vice president assist with law passing?
One of the Vice President's duties is that when the Senate votes on a bill and it is a tie, he can break the tie. So, for example, from 2001 to 2003, the US Senate was 50 Democrats and 50 Republicans. When a bill was voted on and came up exactly 50-50, the Vice President (Dick Cheney at the time, a Republican) would break the tie.
What happens if the vice president is not able to be there and needed?
I am not sure what you want to know. If the vice-president is not at the Senate to vote in the event of a tie, he does not vote and the bill dies. Senators have ways of delaying votes if it is to their advantage to do. If the vice-president's vote is expected to be needed to pass an important bill, the vote would probably be delayed until the Veep was there. If the president dies and the vice-president needs to be sworn in, he will be found and sworn whenever he is.
Can the vice president intro a bill into the house's hopper?
No, he can not introduce legislation. He can only vote if there is a tie vote in the Senate. He has no role in the House.
