The Legislative Branch (U.S. Congress), by powers given to them under the Constitution, is the branch of government that is empowered with providing for and maintaining the Navy. As Commander in Chief, the President commands/directs all military operations, but it is the Congress which keeps the Navy and Marine Corps (the Marines are a part of the Navy Department) operating.
