The answer is false. A bill has to pass both the House and the Senate, and THEN be signed by the President for it to become a law

Answer:

The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The United States Congress is the legislative branch of the federal government, in charge of sanctioning the federal laws that will govern life in society in the territory of the United States of America.

Congress is a bicameral organ, formed by two houses: the House of Representatives, which exercises a proportional representation of the population of each state; and the Senate, which represents each state of the country equally.

Due to this bicamerality, for a law to be sanctioned it must be approved by both chambers of Congress; that is, a double approval is required.
