Question

The president, Congress members, lobbies, and even private citizens can propose legislations, but they do so in different ways. Discuss the different ways that these people or groups can suggest a new bill. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F

Answer 1

Answer:

Congress members can propose bills directly, they simply have to draft the bill and introduce it in the legislative body where they belong: either the House of Representatives or the Senate.

Lobbysts cannot introduce bills themselves, but they can influence a bill introduced by a Congress member, by influencing that member through lobbying, precisely.

Finally, private citizens cannot introduce bills directly either. They have to write the bills and send them to their respective senator or representative, and hope for their approval and support.
