Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Before a bill can be sent to the president, both the House of Representatives and the Senate must agree on the exact wording of the bill. If there are differences between the House and Senate versions, a conference committee is often formed to reconcile those differences and produce a final, unified bill for both chambers to vote on again.
