How bilk becomo laws...
At any one time, there may be 50 or more farm-related bills
under consideration by the Pennsylvania House and Senate A
bill can languish in committee for months, even years Or it can
be introduced, passed by both the House and Senate and be
on the Governor’s desk in a matter of days
Bills must originate with either a Senator or a Represen
tative With the help of their staffs, constituents and outside
consultants, legislators state their intent m legal language,
which is usually further refined as the measure is put into
official form by the Legislative Reference Bureau
If a bill was originated by a House member, it will be referred
to a House committee The committee will make its own
determination of the bill's worthiness before sending it to the
floor for consideration by the full House Each bill must be
given three readings m the House before members can vote on
it
If they pass the bill, it goes to the Senate, where it is
referred to a committee, and follows the same procedure it
underwent in the House For bills originating in the Senate,
the procedure is reversed
If both the Senate and the House pass a bill, and the
Governor signs it, it becomes a law
Edinburg, Scotland, is named for the 7th century King
Edwin, around whom the settlement of Edwin's Burgh
sprang up.
