In the federal government of the United States, the separation of powers primarily divides authority among three branches: the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. However, the administrative agencies and various independent commissions that operate under the executive branch are often seen as somewhat excluded from this strict separation. These agencies have regulatory powers that can blur the lines between the branches, as they can create rules, enforce laws, and adjudicate disputes. Additionally, state and local governments may have different structures and do not always adhere to the same separation of powers principles as the federal government.
