Therefore, D.C. laws apply specifically to the district and its residents, while federal laws apply across the entire United States.
All states, including New Jersey, have a democratically elected state government and are still part of the democratically elected federal government.

National laws are laws that are passed by a country's federal government and apply to the entire country.

The judicial branch of government has the power to interpret and apply laws. This branch is responsible for resolving disputes and ensuring that laws are applied fairly and consistently. Courts, judges, and legal systems operate within the judicial branch to uphold the rule of law and protect individual rights.
Congress is not exempt from the laws they pass. Laws passed by the federal government apply to all citizens of the United States, even the people who make them.
