How Laws are Made

Almost all of them

A lot of them

About half of them

Very few of them

Call their mom and ask permission

Write a bill and introduce it

Make sure it's ok with their party

A security force

A person in charge of making commitments

A group of people appointed for a specific purpose

For people in Congress to listen to each other

For people in Congress to hear testimony

For the public to hear Congress

Make changes to the text

Send it up to the next level

Hand it off to Mark the document guy

The Armed Forces Committee

The Labor Committee

The Education Committee

The Rules Committee

Two-for-one special at Dave and Buster's

When a Senator talks as long as they can to delay a vote on a bill

Amendment to a bill that puts the bill past the maximum length

The person doing the filibuster stops talking

Happy hour starts at Dave and Buster's

The leader of the Senate calls for the end of the filibuster

Three-fifths of the Senate votes for a time limit

It dies

It goes back to Congress

The Vice President signs it

The States approve it

Prior to the veto, Congress calls criss-cross-no-veto

A two-thirds vote of Congress

Supreme Court intervention

The Vice President double-signs

They all meet up at Dave and Buster's for happy hour

Fireworks

The bill becomes a law

The bill is sent to the vice president
