Only a member of Congress is allowed to introduce a bill to Congress. While interest groups and average citizens can propose ideas and advocate for legislation, only elected representatives can formally present a bill in either the House of Representatives or the Senate. The president can suggest legislation and work with members of Congress to promote certain bills, but cannot introduce them directly.
