bills are considered and debated by elected representatives.

A president's veto of a bill means

the president has refused to sign the bill.

One can conclude that seats on a conference committee are highly sought after because

the members determine the final version of the bill.

In the context of the passage, what is a draft?

any version in the development of something written

requires negotiation and compromise.
