Once proposed legislation is recommended for passage by a standing committee in the House, it typically goes to the House floor for debate and further consideration. Members may discuss the bill, propose amendments, and vote on it. If the bill passes the vote, it moves on to the Senate for consideration, while if it fails, the legislation may be tabled or revised before further action.
An inactive bill is a piece of proposed legislation that has not progressed through the legislative process for an extended period of time. It may have been tabled, postponed, or abandoned by lawmakers, resulting in no further action being taken on it.
Proposed legislation bills can be defeated by opponents after they have been introduced. The members of the House of Representatives or the Senate can vote down the proposed bills.

Hearings to discuss proposed legislation can be held anytime during the year. There is not a set schedule for the hearings, but once a hearing has been scheduled, the public should be notified.

A draft law is a proposed piece of legislation that has not yet been formally introduced or submitted for consideration by a legislative body. A bill, on the other hand, is a proposed law that has been formally introduced in a legislature for consideration, debate, and potential enactment.
Actually, a standing bill is a proposed piece of legislation that is pending before a legislature and has not yet been enacted into law. Once it is enacted, it becomes a statute or law.
An act is a law that has been passed by a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress, and is formally enacted. Legislation, on the other hand, refers to the broader process of making laws, which includes the proposal, debate, and enactment of bills. While all acts are a result of legislation, not all legislation necessarily becomes an act, as proposed bills may be rejected or withdrawn during the legislative process.
A bill that has been signed
In British English, to table a motion, means to bring up a motion for debate. In American English, it means to postpone a motion. Opposites!
