Duties of the Legislative Branch

The video explains the three branches of the U.S. government: executive, judicial, and legislative. The executive branch, led by the President, enforces laws. The judicial branch, led by the Supreme Court, ensures laws are constitutional. The legislative branch, composed of Congress, creates laws. Congress includes the Senate and the House of Representatives, with members elected by state citizens. The legislative process involves debating and voting on laws, which must be approved by the President. Congress also elects leaders, approves presidential nominations, handles impeachment, and approves treaties and war declarations.
