A bill is a proposal for a law. Ideas for bills come from many sources: examples: a legislator"s (cid:272)o(cid:374)stitue(cid:374)ts, (cid:271)usi(cid:374)esses, go(cid:448)er(cid:374)(cid:373)e(cid:374)t age(cid:374)(cid:272)ies, professio(cid:374)al associations, interest groups and other state legislatures.

Senate: s 207 for the senate, hr 8516 for the house (larger because this chamber is bigger & sees more bills)
