Laws for the US are made by?

Answer 1

Laws in the US are made by the legislatures. These are the Congress of the United States and the legislatures of the several States and associated territories such as Puerto Rico. Cities and counties also create laws, but they are more likely to be called by other names, such as "ordinance" or "code."

In addition to this legislative process, law can made by executive action. An agency such as the Department of Justice or the State Health Department can publish a notice of intent to issue a regulation, hold public hearing and then issue a regulation, which is a kind of law.

Answer 2

In the US the primary legal document is the US Constitution and its amendments, this was made by the founding fathers as the country was established.

Under the umbrella of the constitution laws are also made by the US federal and state governments made up of duly elected citizens.

Further as the US broadly follows the English legal model. The US courts can make law as case history, trying to interpret governmental bills. The ultimate arbiter as to the legality or fairness of any law made in the US is the US Supreme Court, which also has the job of ensuring that no bills contravene the constitution.

Answer 3

In the UK, laws are proposed by Members of Parliament putting forward a 'Bill'. The Bill is scrutinised in the House of Lords, and if the House of Commons accepted the House of Lords recommendations and changes, it becomes law if it passes the division vote with a majority in the House of Commons. It is not unusual for the House of Commons to reject the House of Lords changes, and to vote the Bill into law anyway. But the House of Lords (though unelected) is an important brake on any legislation that is rushed through without too much thought by the Governing Party in the House of Commons. Some Bills may be passed to-and-fro until both Houses are satisfied that it can become law.
