Suppose you need to explain how a bill becomes law younger student write short easy understand paragraph that explains the major steps in process?
A bill becomes a law through a series of steps. First, someone has an idea for a new law and writes it down. This is called a bill. The bill is then introduced in either the House of Representatives or the Senate. That is where it will be debated and voted on. If a majority of the members vote yes, the bill passes. Next, the bill goes to the other house of Congress. It also must be passed by the majority vote. If it does, the bill goes to the president. The president can sign it into law, veto it, or do nothing and let the bill become law after ten days. If the president vetoes the bill, Congress can override the veto with a two-thirds vote in each house. Finally, the law goes into effect!
