In order for Congress to pass legislation, both the Senate and the House of Representatives must give their approval. Neither is more authoritative than the other. It is also true, in a sense, that it is the President who gives final approval, by signing the legislation, or who withholds final approval by vetoing it (which Congress can override if they have enough votes).
