A BILL does not automatically become a LAW. It must be passed and sent to the President. Only when the President signs the bill does it become law.

so that a crappy, pointless bill will not become a crappy, pointless law. ;)
In most democracies the bills will pass through the various legislative houses then get signed into law by the head of state as the final step. In some countries a supreme judicial court may then rule on the legality of the law against provisions of a constitutional document and could strike the law down.
A bill can go through the House and Senate at the same time. But often, a bill is passed by one house of Congress, then goes to the other for action.After a bill passes both houses, it goes to the President, who either can approve or veto(reject) it.If the President vetoes a bill, it still can become law-if two thirds of the House and the Senate vote to override it.See actual diagram at site below under sources.
First, you must have an idea of what you want the bill to establish. Then you need to do some research to see if the bill is legalized yet. Then you should draft your bill: it needs a title, (a bill to....) an enacting clause, and the body of the bill. You should define what the bill is about, and you need to tell where the money is coming from. Then you need to find a way so that everyone knows about the law if it is passed. If someone dies not follow your law, there must be a penalty. There should also be an effective date on when the bill should be passed.

If a bill is vetoed it can become a law by being sent back to the House of Representatives and the Senate. If 2/3 of both the House of representatives and the Senate vote yes for the bill to become a law, it becomes a law without a signature.
In the United States, when a bill that has been approved by both Houses of Congress, it is sent to the President. Thus a bill can become a law when the President signs it into law.
A bill becomes law after it goes to each house and they each send it to committee. Then, each body votes on it. The last stage is the president gets the bill and can either sign it, veto it, pocket veto it.
