well first it goes through the House (after a very long process) then it goes through the Senate (again, a very long process). After that, it goes through something called Conference Committee (a committee formed out of the two houses) to have the bill revised one last time. Finally, both the houses vote on it one last time. So in essence, it must be passed twice by each house.

What do committees do in the Congress?

Conference committees operate after the House and the Senate have passed different versions of a bill. Conference committees exist to negotiate a compromise bill that both houses can accept. Both houses of Congress must eventually pass the identical legislation for the bill to become law. (See U.S. Const., art I, sec. 7.) The two houses can reach that identical product through the process of amendments between Houses, where the House passes the Senate bill with a House amendment, or vice versa, but this process can be cumbersome. Thus most major bills become law through using a conference committee. (See Sen. Procedure, 449.)
