Question 23 • U.S. Government - SS3315 IC

Which statement about the lawmaking process is accurate?

Answer
A
A bill can only originate in the Senate.
B
A bill can have a second chance after a veto.
C
A bill can only originate in the House of Representatives.
D
A bill can often be passed quickly and easily.

Explanation

A bill passed by Congress can be vetoed by the president, but Congress gets another chance to pass it. If two-thirds of each chamber votes to override the veto, the bill becomes law without the president’s approval. So the accurate statement is that a bill can have a second chance after a veto. Bills can generally originate in either the House or the Senate, and passing them often involves several steps.
