=**Your Bill is Moving On!**= Congratulations! You must be a good lobbyist because you got your bill pushed through the committee. Most bills die in committee and never make it to the entire chamber (in this case the Senate) to discuss and debate. __Once the bill passes out of the committee it goes to the entire chamber to be discussed, debated, and voted on__.

As the key lobbyist favoring this bill and pushing for its passage, you'll remain in the full Senate to testify if needed. Sometimes lobbyists will testify, but your testimony in the committee is available for the entire Senate. __Any senator can offer an amendment to the bill - that means any senators can change the bill or add something to it...an amendment only goes onto the bill if a majority votes in favor__.

YOU SHOULD NOW HAVE THE 4TH BULLET COMPLETED.

Once the full Senate is done debating the bill, it's put up for a vote. If the majority vote against the bill, it does or is sent back to commitee, where it would most likely die. However, you are an excellent lobbyist because your bill got passed by the Senate. Click where you think the bill goes next:
 * It passed so it's a law
 * It goes to the House of Representatives
 * It goes to the President to be signed
