The Judicial Branch make sure the rules and laws follow the principles of the U.S. Constitution. The Executive Branch provides leadership and direction to our government and helps enforce the rules and laws. How A Bill Gets Passed First a concerned person, group, or legislator has an idea and shows it to the legislature. Then a Representative or Senator writes the bill. The bill is introduced to either the House or Senate.
Committee reviews the bill and then reports on whether they are in favor or unfavored.
If the bill has been changed, it either returns to the original chamber for a new vote or proceeds to a conference committee. If no changes have been made, the bill is sent to the Governor. The Senate or House passes the bill. The bill is sent to the other chamber of the General Assembly. The House or Senate then passes the bill.
