How the House of Representatives pass laws?
To make it simple, a law begins as a bill, introduced by a member of one of the two houses of Congress. After discussion and possible amendments are proposed and voted up or down, the body votes on the amended bill. If it passes, it is sent to the other house and voted on. If it passes both houses, it is sent to the President. If he signs it or ignores it for ten days, it becomes a law. If he vetoes it, it goes back to the house where it first passed and if they pass it again with a 2/3 majority, it is sent to the other house. If they also pass it again with a 2/3 majority, it becomes law without the President's approval.
