How Our Laws Are Made by

An award winning infographic that explains the complex process of how a bill becomes a law. The data in the poster is based on the current U.S. government documentation in the Library of Congress. The project was a collaboration of Mike Wirth and Dr. Suzanne Cooper-Guasco, professors at Queens University of Charlotte.

The infographic took first place in the Design for America contest, How a bill becomes law category, by Sunlight Foundation in June of 2010.
