LaoSomeone proposes a bill. Then a committee looks it over to determine if it should become a law. Then the committee votes to send it to the floor. It has to pass both the Senate and the House. Then it is sent to the President. If the President signs, it becomes a law. If not, it is sent back to Congress. If a 3/4 vote approves, it becomes a law even if the President refused to sign it.
A bill becomes a law when the senator and judicial branch go over the bill. if it gets the required amount of votes in congress the president will either veto the bill or make the bill a new law
Another View: ABOVE ANSWER IS INCOORECT (in the US) There is no collaboration between the Legislative and Judicial Branches prior to a Bill being passed by Congress. If/when the Bill is passed by both houses of Congress it is sent to the President who may sign it into law. ONLY WHEN IT BECOMES A LAW can the Judicial Branch rule on its Constitutionality - and then - only after it is appealed completely through the lower courts before it reaches them.

In the United States, when a bill that has been approved by both Houses of Congress, it is sent to the President. Thus a bill can become a law when the President signs it into law.
Can a bill ever become a law without the president approvalhow?
Yes it can. A law needs to be proposed by the House of Commons, then read by the House of Senate. After that happens the governor General gives the royal assent that the bill can become a law.
What happens after the president signs a bill?
When the president signs the bill, it becomes law. If the president refuses, the bill is vetoed, but if a two thirds vote by Congress, it can still become law.
