I link to several legislative essays and research guides on my page
entitled, "The Legislative Process," at URL
http://www.virtualchase.com/govdoc/Process.htm
See, in particular, How Our Laws Are Made.
I also think Judy Manion's and Joe Meringolo's book, A Research Guide to
Congress, does a great job of explaining the process.
