After the actions mentioned in the quote, the next step is that the bill goes to a committee in the Senate. Once the committee reviews and potentially amends the bill, it is then brought to the Senate floor for a vote. If the Senate approves the bill, it may then go to a conference committee if there are differences between the House and Senate versions, and eventually, it can be sent to the president for signing into law.
