Answer: A Standing Committee must approve it.

Step-by-step explanation:

New bills are referred to standing committees in the House or Senate by subject matter, following a strictly outlined procedure. After a set of hearings are held with different specialists, government authorities, or lobbyists that talk to the committee members, the bill is marked up or amended, before sending it to the floor.
