What is required for a bill introduced in the US House of Representatives to become a law?

  1. President's absolute agreement

  2. Approval by majority of state governors

  3. 2/3 vote of both houses to override a veto

  4. A referendum vote by the public

The correct answer is: 2/3 vote of both houses to override a veto

A bill is introduced in the US House of Representatives when a member of Congress presents the proposed legislation. For the bill to become a law, the bill must pass through both the House and the Senate, and be signed by the President. Option A is incorrect because the President's agreement is not required for a bill to become a law, but it is required for the bill to be signed into law. Option B is incorrect because state governors do not have a role in the federal legislative process. Option D is incorrect because referendums are not used at the federal level to pass laws. The correct answer, C, is the correct process for a bill to become a law at the federal level.
