Congress is set up to slow down new legislation. In the Senate a supermajority of 3/5, typically 60 votes are needed to get cloture or end debate in order to even vote for the bill. A minority of 2/5, typically 40 can stop a bill in the Senate with a filibuster by having "endless debate"

Did Obama ever pass any legislation?
Presidents cannot pass legislation. It is congress that makes the laws, and then the president either signs them or vetoes them. But presidents can and do encourage congress to pass certain bills; President Obama, like all presidents before him, has had a number of pieces of legislation he wanted congress to pass. In some cases, they did; in others, they did not.
