What else can I help you with?
Does the president make any laws?
No. It's the Congress who write the bills. And the president signs the bills. However, the president is in charge of enforcing laws that Congress has made and he has a great deal of leeway in how or if laws are enforced. He issues directives to federal workers on how to interpret and carry out laws. In that sense, he makes laws.
Can the Congress make any law it wants to?
no
Did Barack Obama made new laws?
No, he did not. Under the American system of government, a president can propose or suggest a new policy, and he can advocate for something he would like to see become a law. But he cannot make any laws. Only congress can do that. Congress votes on a bill, and if the bill gets enough votes, it becomes a law. After that happens, the president can either sign it or veto it. But the laws themselves still come from the congress.

The main task of each house of Congress is to?
The legislative branch (or Congress) is divided into two parts called the House of Representatives and the Senate. These two bodies must both approve any laws before Congress passes them. Congress also has the power to impeach the president if it so chooses.
Is there any precedence for the president going around congress and bringing a law directly to the people to vote on?
I am not sure what you want to know. The people can not directly vote on laws or make laws. Only Congress can do that. The president could ask the people to write their Congressmen and ask for a law to be passed. I do not know of any President who did that. Ordinarily, the way for the President to influence legislation is to work with the Congressional leaders of his party and get them to push his agenda.
Have laws ever been signed by any president that didn't go through Congress first?
No.
