A bill goes through a process. It starts in one of the houses in congress, goes to committee, gets voted on by the committee, then is either changed, tabled, or stays the same, after it leaves committee the body votes on it. Then, it goes to the other body of congress and goes through the same process. If it passes both houses it goes to the president and he either signs it or vetoes it.
