Once a bill has been introduced on the floor of the House or Senate, it is referred to the appropriate committee or committees for evaluation.
For a bill to become law it must be passed by both houses of Congress, so when the Senate passes a bill, the same bill must also go to the House of Representatives, or if the House has passed a similar bill, the two bills must be reconciled by a joint committee to produce a single bill that both houses can pass. Then when both houses have passed the same bill, the bill goes to the President for his signature. The President may or may not sign the bill, and if he doesn't, Congress can over-ride the veto if they have enough votes. Otherwise the bill dies.
Most bills goes to the Rules Committee. This committee sets conditions for debate and amendment when the whole House meets on the bill. In the Senate, the leader of the majority party set the schedule for debate by the whole Senate.
After a bill has been passed in each chamber, a conference committee is formed to write a compromise bill, which then must be approved by both chambers once again, before t is sent to the President to sign(approve) or veto (disapprove).
