What responsibility does the president have for the laws congress makes?
I will tell you the process for a bill to become a law. Citizens find a problem or a want and tells their representative. He then takes it to congress and they vote on it. If it passes, it goes to the president. That is called a bill. If it doesn't pass the whole thing is scraped. If the president doesn't like the bill it goes back to congress. They vote again and if so many people vote yes they over rule the president and it becomes a law. If they don't vote yes the whole bill is scraped. You can stop this early if the president says yes the first time around.
