The House and Senate try to work out differences in a conference committee.

Explanation:

A comference comittee is a temporary ad-hoc, specially made panel, formed by House and Senate to discuss and come to an agreement on differences on a bill that varies from the one that has been passed in both House and Senate but is diverse from one another. They are usually formed to discuss several difficult and major controversial differences, for example this year there has been problems with the Tax Bill, where the senate passed one version of it, and the House passed another, so they now have to discuss and find a way to pass the same law.
