Reference information: Estimado Remy,
Debo retractar mi opinión neutral sobre tu entrada de hoy. Aceavila tiene razón también. Mi error lo cometí al entender que el proyecto de ley había sido aprobado por el Senado y no por un comité del Senado. Buscando y buscando encontré este link en donde he pegado información que puede ser de interés. Saludos cordiales.
( Es más complejo de lo que yo solía entender por proyectos de ley y el sistema legislativo!)
To make things a little more complicated, committees have subcommittees. A health committee, for instance, may have a subcommittee on Indian health. Subcommittees are made up of a handful of people from the regular committee. If a bill passes a subcommittee, it goes to the committee and is subject to the committee actions described above.
So let’s say now that your bill is lucky enough to have made it out of the committee it was sent to. Now your bill can do one of three things. It can be sent back down to be debated by another applicable committee/subcommittee, it can die waiting for the chamber to debate it, or it can be debated by the chamber. Any action that takes place on a bill while it is being considered by the entire chamber is called a floor action. Amendments here are floor amendments, votes are floor votes, debate is floor debate, etc.
If your bill is debated on the floor, it is once again subject to amendments. These are floor amendments and are voted on by everyone present in the House. Eventually, someone will make a motion to pass the bill, and someone else will second that motion, and a passage vote will take place. If the bill fails its passage vote, it will die. If it passes its passage vote, it will go to the Senate. The Senate will have their first reading of the bill and send it down to an appropriate committee.

Usually when the bill does pass the Senate, it has been amended somewhere, either by the subcommittee, the committee, or on the floor. If there are any changes to the bill at all, it isn’t ready for the President. Bills must pass both chambers in identical form. Usually at this point, a conference is called, where a handful of senators and a handful of representatives meet and hammer out the differences between the House and Senate versions of the bill. If they can’t reach an agreement the bill dies. If they do reach an agreement, the compromise text is sent back to the House and Senate, where it receives floor passage votes. If it passes each chamber, it goes to the President.
