Bills are the most common form of proposals for laws. In order to become a law, a bill must be approved by a majority vote in both the House and the Senate, and then must be approved by the Governor.
If the Governor vetoes a bill, the House and Senate can over-ride his veto with a two-thirds vote in favor, and then the bill becomes a law.
