1 Answer

6 votes

Answer:

debate and voting on the bill, which is then passed or defeated.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of the 10 steps of the procedure of how a bill becomes law. When a committee votes for the bill with all of its comments and amendments, it is sent to the floor. The full committee votes for the bill and if the bill passes, it is being sent to either the House or the Senate. After the debate and approval of amendments, the bill is being voted for or against. If the majority was for the bill, it is then being passed to the other chamber, where there is usually a same routine. If the same version of the bill is approved by both Houses, it is then sent to the President of the United States for a signing. President can choose to sign the bill, to veto it and return it to the House od Representatives with all of his objections, or can choose to ignore the bill. If he ignores the bill, it automatically becomes a law in 10 days.
