List the various steps involved in the legislative process

What will be an ideal response?

Step 1: A bill is introduced into the U.S. House of Representatives or Senate by a single member or by several members. It is generally referred to the committee of the House or Senate that has jurisdiction over the subject matter of the bill.
Step 2: Let's briefly follow through the House of Representatives a bill proposing to deregulate the trucking industry by doing away with the rate-making power of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC). This bill would be referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, which, in turn, would refer it to the appropriate subcommittee.
Step 3: The House subcommittee holds hearings on the bill, listening to testimony from all concerned parties and establishing a hearing record.
Step 4: After hearings, the bill is "marked up" (drafted in precise form) and then referred to the subcommittee for a vote.
Step 5: If the vote is affirmative, the subcommittee forwards the bill to the full House Energy and Commerce committee, which accepts the subcommittee's recommendation, puts a hold on the bill, or rejects it. If the House committee votes to accept the bill, it reports the bill to the full House of Representatives for a vote by all members.
Step 6: If the bill is passed by the House of Representatives and a similar bill is passed by the Senate, the bills go to a Senate–House Conference Committee to reconcile any differences in content. After compromise and reconciliation of the two bills, a single bill is reported to the full House and Senate for a vote.
Step 7: If there is a final affirmative vote by both houses of Congress, the bill is forwarded to the president, who may sign it into law or veto it. When the president signs the bill into law, it becomes known as a statute, meaning it is written down and codified in the U.S. Code. In the event of a presidential veto, a two-thirds vote of the Senate and House membership is required to override the veto. If the president takes no action within 10 days of receiving the bill from Congress, the bill automatically becomes law without the president's signature.
