How does a bill become a law?

1. Introduction
  • One bill is introduced at the HOUSE and another bill at the SENATE
2. Committees
  • Bills are reviewed by COMMITTEES
  • House bills have to be approved by 4 committees.
  • Senate bills have to be approved by 3 committees.
3. Floor Votes
  • Once bills are approved by committees they are voted by the whole legislative body.
  • We call this “floor vote”
4. Reconciliation
  • Bills are MERGED into a single proposal.

  • If they had different language, the new language might require a new floor vote
5. Signature
  • After the single language is voted favorably by the House and Senate, the bill goes to the Governor for signature.
  • The bill becomes LAW after signed by the Governor

About FLIC Votes

FLIC Votes seeks to expand democracy by shaping an active and conscious electorate that reflects the diversity of Florida while engaging those who can’t yet vote.

FLIC Votes’ rich history as an engine in the mobilization of ordinary citizens to enact extraordinary change comes through powerful civic engagement, popular education, and building consciousness. We work to expand the electorate and bring forth victories for our vulnerable immigrant communities.

Our special sauce comes from engaging low-propensity voters in Florida that are consistently underrepresented, underinvested, and oftentimes ignored. Our priority is to elevate voters in these communities to rise to the challenge of transforming governance within themselves and their communities.

While voter participation is central to our civic engagement program, FLIC also creates opportunities for those who cannot vote yet – such as youth and immigrant groups – to participate in our Democracy, such as by joining mobilizations or through storytelling and consciousness-raising work.

From phone and text banks, to voter education and registration, poll watching and more, we’re always in need of helpful hands.
