4Second Chamber
If passed, it repeats committee review and a floor vote in the other chamber.
-
5Resolve Differences
If the chambers pass different versions, a conference reconciles them.
-

The reconciled bill is enrolled and delivered to the White House.

Becomes law with a signature, or automatically after 10 days.
✓ Becomes Law ✗ Vetoed
A veto can still be overridden by a two-thirds vote in both chambers. And once a bill is signed into law, further changes come from new amending legislation — not edits to the original text.
