Understanding How Laws Are Made

Meer over het boek

How does the U.S. government work? What processes are needed to create a new law, become a citizen, or elect a president? With a running timeline on each spread, each book in this series clearly explains the basic workings of our government to inspire our future leaders. This book for elementary readers highlights the sequence of events from the idea to implementation. Engaging photographs and a timeline support each step in the process, from thinking of an idea for a new law through writing a bill, getting it passed by Congress and getting the president to sign it into law. A table of contents, glossary, further resources, and an index are included.
