The process of how a bill becomes a law is outlined in Article I of the United States Constitution. Specifically, Section 7 details the steps a bill must go through in Congress, including its passage in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, as well as the President's role in either approving or vetoing the legislation.

Who approves a bill before the president signs it?

A bill goes to the house of representatives (435 people), is the majority of them say yes then the bill moves onto the Senate (100 people). If the majority of the Senate says yes. (If there is a tie then the Vice President votes on the bill breaking the tie.)Then the bill goes to the President. If the President gets the law and never says anything for ten days the bill automatically becomes a 'pocket veto' and it can try this process of becoming a law again and again. If the President says no then the bill automatically becomes a 'veto' and can try the process of becoming a law as many times as it wants.BUT when a law become a veto it has the chance to 'override' the president (if over half of the House of Representatives say yes then it moves to the Senate- If over half of the senate say yes then the law can skip past the Presidents answer and it automatically becomes a law.)[BILL]-[SENATE]-[PRESIDENT]-[LAW]+(OVERRIDE)

If the veto is not overriden what happens to the bill?

If Congress cannot override a Presidential veto with a two-thirds majority, the bill in that form cannot become law. However, new legislation seeking to accomplish the same thing can be reintroduced at a later date, possibly with the portions to which the President objected removed, when it must go through the entire legislative cycle again.


What happens if the president rejects the bill?

If the President vetoes a bill, he sends it back to the House or Senate. If the House and Senate still think that the bill should become a law, both houses have to take a vote again. And if two thirds of both the House and Senate vote "Yea" or Yes, then they "Override" the President's veto and the bill becomes a law.


What does article 1 section 7 say about voting of represenatives on a bill?

Article 1, Section 7 says that all bills that would raise revenue must begin in the House of Representatives, but that the Senate can propose amendments to revenue bills as well as agreeing or disagreeing with the bills. Article 1, Section 7 also deals with the presidential veto. All bills must go before the president and he must either sign it, or send it back for revisions. If the president signs it, the bill goes into law. If he doesn't sign it and ten days pass (Sundays aren't included), the bill will become law. The only exception to this is if the Congress adjourns before the ten days pass, which prevents bills from becoming law unless signed by the president. If a bill is sent back to Congress for revision, it can become law without the president's signature if both houses of Congress vote yes on it with a 2/3 vote. The last thing that Article 1, Section 7 says is that all bills must go before the president to be signed. The only exception is bills that would adjourn Congress.
