How are the laws passed in California?
When a bill is introduced in a legislature, it is referred to a committee of that house, where the members if that committee and of sub-committees working under it will consider the bill and what action to take on it. Each committee will hold public hearings in a bill that has been referred to it, will consider amendments to the bill, and ultimately will decide whether to recommend to the House (or Senate) that they vote Yes or No on the bill or, the committee may be able to stall action on the bill and "pigeonhole" it. The House and Senate will follow the recommendations of their committees in a very large percentage of the votes on bills. Each house of Congress must have a majority of members present to conduct official business; this is called a quorum. When a bill is being voted upon in either house of Congress, a majority of Yes votes out of all the votes being cast is required to pass the bill. The bill must be passed in identical form by a majority in each house, and then it is sent to the President. If he signs the bill, it will become a law. If he exercises his right to veto the bill, he will refuse to sign it, give his reasons, and send it back to the house in which it was first introduced. Congress has the power to override a Presidential veto if they can muster a 2/3 vote in each house, but this is extremely hard to do. If the President neither signs nor vetoes the bill within 10 days after he receives it, one of two things will happen, depending upon whether Congress is still in session at the end of the 10 days after the President received the bill. If Congress is still in session, the bill will become a law without the President's signature. If Congress had adjourned during the 10 days, the bill will not become a law. This latter situation is nicknamed the "pocket veto", because the President figuratively speaking puts the bill in his pocket and ignores it. The theory behind the pocket veto possibility is that the President should always have 10 days to decide whether to sign a bill or not, and if Congress has adjourned before the 10 days are up, it means the President is unable to send the bill back to Congress with a formal veto.
