A public bill is a type of legislation that is proposed for consideration by a legislative body, such as a parliament or congress. These bills are designed to address issues that affect the general public, such as healthcare, education, or transportation. If passed, public bills become laws that apply to everyone within the jurisdiction. Public bills can be introduced by members of the legislative body, often referred to as lawmakers or legislators. They typically go through a series of steps, including committee reviews and debates, before being voted on. If approved by the majority, the bill is sent to the executive branch for final approval or veto.
