Chapter V

Article 68.
Laws may originate in either of the Houses of Congress, by
bills presented by their members or by the Executive,
excepting those relative to the objects treated of in Article
44.

Article 69.
A bill being approved by the House wherein it originated,
shall pass for discussion to the other House. Being approved
by both, it shall pass to the Executive of the Nation for his
examination; and should it receive his approbation he shall
publish it as law.

Article 70.
Every bill not returned within ten working-days by the
Executive, shall be taken as approved by him.

Article 71.
No bill entirely rejected by one House, can be presented again
during that year. But should it be only amplified or corrected
by the revising House, it shall return to that wherein it
originated; and if there the additions or corrections be
approved by an absolute majority, it shall pass to the
Executive. If the additions or corrections be rejected, it
shall return to the revising House, and if here they be again
sanctioned by a majority of two-thirds of its members, it
shall pass to the other House, and it shall not be understood
that the said additions and corrections are rejected, unless
two-thirds of the members present should so vote.

Article 72.
A bill being rejected in whole or in part by the Executive, he
shall return it with his objections to the House in which it
originated; here it shall be debated again; and if it be
confirmed by a majority of two-thirds, it shall pass again to
the revising House. If both Houses should pass it by the same
majority, it becomes a law, and shall be sent to the Executive
for promulgation. In such case the votes of both Houses shall
be by yeas and nays, and the names of the persons so voting
shall be recorded, as well as the objections of the Executive,
and shall be immediately published in the daily-press. If the
Houses differ upon the objections, the bill cannot be renewed
during that year.

Article 73.
The following formula shall be used in the passage of the
laws: "The Senate and Chamber of Deputies of the Argentine
Nation in Congress assembled, etc.. decree, or sanction, with
the force of law."
