THe President can not make laws. He can sign bills into law and he has signed most of the ones that cross his desk. He does issue executive orders and gives orders to the Justice Department to ignore some parts of some laws. This latter action may be illegal but he has not yet been seriously challenged.

Has Obama made any new laws?

A president cannot make laws. Only congress can do that. A president can sign something into law, or he can veto it. All presidents, including President Obama, have certain priorities and they hope congress will turn those priorities into laws, but it doesn't always happen the way a president might want it to.


Did Barack Obama made new laws?

No, he did not. Under the American system of government, a president can propose or suggest a new policy, and he can advocate for something he would like to see become a law. But he cannot make any laws. Only congress can do that. Congress votes on a bill, and if the bill gets enough votes, it becomes a law. After that happens, the president can either sign it or veto it. But the laws themselves still come from the congress.

What laws did President Obama pass concerning freedom of speech?

President Obama cannot pass any laws; no president can. Laws are passed by congress, and then either signed or vetoed by the president. That said, presidents can (and do) advocate for certain laws, and try to encourage congress to pass them. There are many laws that President Obama would like to see congress pass, but he has not said anything about laws concerning freedom of speech. But you may be referring to the re-authorization of a law that allows the Secret Service to arrest protesters if they come too close to a restricted zone. That is a controversial law that was signed under President Bush, and many civil libertarians disagree with what a "restricted zone" is. In any event, President Obama did re-authorize that law.
