- Committees and Subcommittees
- We all need to agree on these laws.
- Yes sir.

- The House
- I agree with the laws.
- The Introduction bill is how the bills were introduced and how they become laws. The ideas for the bills come from citizens, lobbyists, or other representatives of interest groups, or the executive branch. The executive branch is the main one and it suggests half of all bills passed.
- The Senate
- We need all Citizens of the United States to agree with these bills.
- Committees are sent bills and deal with the subject of them. Certain things can be divided by multiple committees. If committees reject a bill, most lawmakers will agree with them because they are considered experts. Subcommittees are responsive to the full committee and must work within the rules and guidelines established by the full committee. Subcommittees each have a chairman and ranking member who are responsible for calling hearings and introducing legislation that fall within the jurisdiction of the subcommittee.
- President/Power of Veto
- I'm the President of the United States.
- On the House Floor, amendments can be added as long as the house didn’t adopt a closed rule, which means you can’t add on/adopt an amendment. The bill receives a second reading where it is read section by section. Then people can propose amendments to slow the process so they argue for as long as they need until the bill eventually dies.
- Bills are drafted by lawyers for the senate, then formally presented. They can be amended by both the senate and house. The bills are voted on using majority rule by both house and senate when sent for a third reading.
- A bill which passes through both the House of Representatives and the Senate is brought to the President’s desk. The President is tasked with either signing the bill into law or vetoing the bill to end it, but there is a possibility for the President to not make a choice in ample time. If the President does not make a choice within a ten-day window and Congress is in session, for those ten days, the bill becomes a law by default.
