For a law to be enacted, it must go through a legislative process culminating in approval by the governing authority, such as a parliament or congress. This process typically involves the drafting of a bill, committee reviews, debates, and voting. Once a majority agrees, the bill is sent to the executive branch for approval, often requiring the signature of the president or a similar authority. Upon enactment, the law becomes officially binding and enforceable within the jurisdiction. This process is fundamental to ensuring that laws reflect democratic principles and the will of the people, as well as maintaining legal order.
