~55~ How a Bill Becomes a Law

1 . A bill may be introduced in either the Senate or House of Representa- tives, but the procedure by which a bill becomes a law is much the same, wherever the bill originates . The bill is introduced in the Senate or the House by a member, or mem- bers, of that body . After the bill is filed with the Secretary of the Senate or Chief Clerk of the House, it is given a number and, it is read the first time by title only in open session and referred to a standing committee . 2 . The committee studies the bill and often holds public hearings on it . The committee will then meet to consider the information it has gathered . It may approve the bill with or without amendments, draft a new bill on the same subject incorporating the desired changes, or take no action . 3 . The committee is now ready to report back to the Senate or the House . If the majority is in favor of the bill as introduced or with certain amend- ments, the chair recommends the bill for passage . The committee report is read in open session of the Senate or the House, and the bill is then referred to the Rules Committee . 4 . After the bill has been recommended for passage by the standing com- mittee to which it was originally referred, the Rules Committee can either place it on the second reading calendar for debate before the entire body, or take no action . 5 . When the bill appears on the calendar for second reading, it is subject to amendment . It is then returned to the Rules Committee where it must receive a favorable vote before being placed on the third reading calen- dar for final passage . This referral to Rules is often bypassed by vote of the Senate or the House and the bill placed on final passage immediately following its second reading . Depending upon the degree of controversy, debate may last a few minutes to several hours or even several days . 6 . After passing in the Senate or the House, the bill will go through an almost identical procedure in the other body . If the bill is passed by the other body, but is amended, the originating body must concur on the amendments . If the change in the bill is not accepted, it may be returned for reconsideration of the amendments . If the amendments are not rescinded, a conference committee may be requested on the differences . 7 . If the conference committee cannot agree, a conference committee may be appointed with power to rewrite the amendment or even write an entirely new bill . When the conferees reach agreement, they report to their respective houses . Their report is either accepted or rejected with- out any changes . 8 . If the report is accepted by both houses, the bill is signed by the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House in open sessions of each body, and then is sent for the Governor’s signature . 9 . Within five days, if the Legislature is still is session, or 20 days after its adjournment, the Governor may sign the bill or veto all or any section of it . The Legislature can override the veto by a two-thirds vote of both houses . If the Governor fails to act on the bill, it becomes law without a signature .
