The Illinois legislative process entails a multi-stage review in which bills must pass through introduction, committee consideration, full chamber debates, and votes in both the House and Senate, before proceeding to the governor. The General Assembly meets biennially, with a significant number of measures introduced each session, though only a minority eventually become state law.
