The legislative process is the method by which laws are created and enacted in a government. It typically begins with the introduction of a bill, which is a proposal for new legislation. This bill is then reviewed, debated, and amended by a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress. Once the bill has been approved by the majority of the members, it is sent to the executive branch, often the president or governor, for approval or veto. If signed, the bill becomes law; if vetoed, the legislative body may attempt to override the veto to enact the law.
