Question

What is the process of passing a bill? Which branch passes the bill

Answer 1

Before a bill becomes a law it must pass both houses of Congress and signed into law by the President. It may begin its journey at any time, but it must be passed during the same congressional session of its proposal, a period of one year. If it does not complete the process, it is dropped, and can only be revived through reintroduction and going through the whole process again. Not surprisingly, less that 10% of proposed bills actually become laws.

Answer 2

All bills have to go through the House of Representatives and the Senate before being sent to the President. In each house of Congress there must be a majority in favor of the bill. If it passes both houses it is sent to the President who has 10 days to sign the bill. If he signs the bill it becomes law. If he waits ten days and congress is still in session then it becomes law automatically. If Congress adjourns and the President does not sign the bill it is automatically vetoed without a chance of overturning the veto. If the President veto the bill, he gives his reason for vetoing it, and it is then sent back to Congress where with a 2/3s majority they can overturn the veto and the bill becomes law.

The executive branch passes the bill.
