not realize that the metamorphosis of an idea into reality is a long and tortuous process. After a bill is introduced in the House, it is assigned to an appropriate committee where it is thoroughly examined, tested, and amended if found deficient. If it receives committee approval, it is

sent to the House floor for action. I here, the bill must receive the stamp of approval of a minimum of 51 representatives, a simple maI jority int he 100-member House, on two different occasions, at least one da> apart. If It survives this far. the bill starts on the same long and winding road in the Senate. The Senate, however, could have a disI ferent interpretation of the bill than the House, and could amend it accordingly. If this happens, the Senate will have given its approval to a different version of the bill than the House, and the House needs to reconsider the bill. At this point, House members may concur with their Senate colleagues, and ratify the changed bill. It then goes to the Governor's office, where his signiture will turn it into a full-fledged law. When no concurrence can be reached, the bill is handed over to the care of a conference committee, composed of two senators and two representatives. Those four legislators will then try to iron out the differences, and produce a compromise measure compatible to a majority of both the House and the Senate. Success at this stage means that the bill will be sent to the Governor for his consideration; failure means that the bill is dead for the legislative session. During the long session, which last 60 session days and occurs during odd-numbered years, it is not unusual for over I KM) pieces of legislation to undergo this process. I hose bills, if they are passed into law, could greatly affect the quality
