Only Congress has the power to pass laws (legislate). The President can veto bills and can make suggestions as to laws he/she would like to see enacted. The power of the President is to enforce the laws that are already enacted. The Judicial Branch can interpret the laws and can declare laws that violate the Constitution as unconstitutional.

Explain the primary function of each of the branches of the federal government?

The primary function of the legislative branch, comprised of Congress (the House of Representatives and the Senate), is to make laws. The executive branch, led by the President, is responsible for enforcing and administering those laws. The judicial branch, headed by the Supreme Court, interprets the laws and ensures they align with the Constitution. Together, these branches create a system of checks and balances to prevent any one branch from gaining too much power.
