1. true or false: a bill must pass (by simple majority) a committee before it can be chamber of congress. circle one - correct below if false.

Explanation:

A bill does not need to pass a committee by a simple majority. In fact, a committee can "table" (set aside) a bill without a vote, effectively killing it. Even if a bill is voted on in committee, it doesn't necessarily need a simple majority in all cases. Some committees may have different rules or procedures.

Answer:

False. A bill does not necessarily have to pass (by simple majority) a committee before it can be considered in a chamber of Congress. Committees can take various actions on a bill, and not all require a simple - majority vote for the bill to move forward.
