Lucian Webster · Answer 1

The right answer is "Both chambers of Congress have to resolve any concerns and vote for the bill."

Explanation:

In the US, all bills must be discussed in committees, voted and passed by both chambers of Congress. When there are differences, drafts are conciliated and then, when a single text is agreed on, it is voted by each chamber. The final version is sent to the president to be signed.
