Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) - The Legislative Process (2 min) Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) is your straightforward guide through the often confounding legislative process. Script: The Legislative Process is a series of steps that bills must go through to be enacted. Each step must be completed in a certain period of time. The Legislature is split into 2 chambers (Senate & House) In order to become law the exact same bill must pass both chambers in the exact same form (no changes) in the exact same session. This allows more elected officials to “perfect” a bill before it is passed The basic steps are: Policy Committee Fiscal Committee Floor Debate Then pass over to the other chamber to start again If the bill passes through the second chamber unchanged it goes to the Governor's desk who can sign it, veto it, or do nothing and allow it to pass into law without signature.
