First, it should be noted that the debt ceiling has been repeatedly raised over the past four decades. Under President Reagan, for example, it was raised as much as 17 times. Under both President George H.W. Bush and President Clinton, it was raised four times. Under President George W. Bush, it was raised seven times. And so far, under President Obama, it has been raised on four occasions.

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.
