A committee or subcommittee reviews the bill and suggests amendments if needed. The subcommittee or committee will then accept or reject the bill.

Markup is a process in which a subcommittee or a committee revises a bill that has been introduced. The committee also considers the bill in this process.
When a subcommittee modifies a bill, it typically engages in a detailed review and discussion of the proposed legislation. This process may involve amending the bill's language, adding new provisions, or removing existing ones to address concerns or improve its effectiveness. The modified bill is then reported back to the full committee, where it can undergo further debate and potential changes before being presented to the larger legislative body for consideration. This stage is crucial in shaping the final form of the legislation before it moves forward in the legislative process.
