1: Congress has two legislative bodies or chambers: the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives. Anyone elected to either body can propose a new law.
2:Once a bill is introduced, it is assigned to a committee whose members will research, discuss, and make changes to the bill
3: If the majority of the committee members vote favorably for the bill, it is advanced to the Senate floor, where every Senator has an opportunity to review and debate the legislation. After being voted upon favorably by a committee, the bill is referred to the full Senate for a vote.
4: a majority of 51 out of 100 is required.
5: After both the House and Senate have approved a bill in identical form, the bill is sent to the President.
6: When a bill reaches the President, he has three choices. He can: Sign and pass the bill—the bill becomes a law. Refuse to sign, or veto, the bill
7: The veto allows the President to “check” the legislature by reviewing acts passed by Congress and blocking measures he finds unconstitutional, unjust, or unwise.
hope this helps :)
