Only a member of the House of Representives may introduce any kinds of bills they want.
Only members of Congress can introduce a Bill, though anyone can suggest a topic for a Bill. Most Bills originate in the US House of Representatives.
The legislative branch is the only branch of government that can introduce bills of any kind. However, according to the US Constitution only the House of Representatives may introduce bills for raising revenues.
Anyone can initiate an idea for a bill, but only a member of Congress can introduce the bill. Public and private bills may be introduced in either the House of Representatives or the Senate. Bills that raise revenue can only originate in the House of Representatives as per the Constitution. Most bills begin as companion bills in both houses.
House of Representatives
The Senate cannot introduce bills for raising revenue. Article 1, Section 7 of the US Constitution states that All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other bills
Only people who work in a government office may introduce bills.
The U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 7, Clause 1 states: "All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other Bills."
In the House of Representatives, any member may introduce a bill by dropping it into a box, called a hopper. The Representative may have written the bill himself, his staff may have written it, or a constituent may have sent the bill to the Representative and it was placed in the hopper. In the Senate, a member may introduce a bill after being recognized by the presiding officer and announcing the bill’s introduction. (Bills dealing with raising money must originate in the House of Representatives.)
Lawmakers may introduce bills that they know won't pass for several reasons. They may want to raise awareness about a particular issue, demonstrate their stance on an issue to their constituents, or use it as a starting point for negotiations with other lawmakers. Additionally, introducing bills that won't pass can also be a strategic move to gather support and build momentum for future legislative efforts.
Spending bills must originate in the U.S. House of Representatives; however, as with any bill, they may only become law when enacted in an identical form and substance by the U.S. Senate, as set forth in the bicameralism provisions of the U.S. Constitution.
