Section 7 Whenever the congress pass a bill, it goes to the President. if He approves the bill, it becomes a law immediately.Even If he doesnot, the congress can still pass it by getting the approval of two thirds of each house again..

Section 6 prevents congress members to be extra paid and to have another civil office while elected. It also protects the members from being arrest except in a Treason, Felony and Breach of the peace.
Section 4 and  5 gives each house of the congress the power to control its election and to punish/expell its members.

  
Section 2
