Our founding fathers did not want one branch of the government to become too powerful. They developed 3 branches of government. executive, legislative, and judicial, and gave each specific powers.
The legislative makes (enacts) the laws.
The executive branch enforces the laws.
The judicial branch interprets the laws.
