There are 3 branches in the United States.

Executive branch- PRESIDENT (and vice president). They pass/veto bills, deal with foreign countries, appoint Supreme Court judges, etc.

Legislative branch- CONGRESS. There are two houses of Congress, the House of Representatives and the Senate. They make laws.

Judical branch- SUPREME COURT and the lower courts. They decide whether laws are constitutional or not, and keep justice.
