Let’s face it, the Schoolhouse Rock version of how a bill becomes a law is a gross oversimplification. In reality there are lobbyists and ammendments, CBO scores and committees, and the ever-present threat of a filibuster.

This was just one of the winners in the Sunlight Foundation’s recent Design for America contest.

Yeah, but the infographic does not have a catchy tune that elementary school kids can sing!
