Three Branches of the United States Government
There are three branches that keep the United States intact so one does not overpower the other.
The three branches are Judicial, Legislative, and Executive. In order to understand what three
branches are, you need to understand what they do and who runs them.
Legislative Branch → Checks → Executive & Judicial Branch
Congress is articulated by the House of Representatives and the Senates. There are normally 100
senators. There are fifty states so two senators per state.
Some important things that the Legislative Branch runs:
- Pass laws or can veto them before they reach the executive branch. The House of
Representatives and Senators both have to pass the new forged law. (Ex. of overseeing
Executive Branch).
- The House of Representatives and Senators from the states can decide to start a new war.
(Ex. of overseeing both the executive and judicial branch).
- For the legislative process, Congress can listen to court cases to realize if the case might
need a passed bill. (Example like Brown V Board of Education helped halt segregation
among African Americans so they could learn in school with White Americans). (Ex. of
overseeing Judicial Branch).
- Congress can check the Executive Branch to ensure the taxpayer money is being used
efficiently for the United States of America. While instituting annual budgets, and
manipulating spending policies and taxes. (Ex. of overseeing Executive Branch).
Judicial Branch → Checks → Executive & Legislative Branch
The Judicial Branch consists of the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS). Among
other courts like United States Tax Court, the United States Court of Federal Claims, the United
States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces, and the United States Court for Veterans.
Many actions that take place in the Judicial Branch;
- Requesting and interpreting laws. The Judicial Branch decides how a certain law is
described then they apply it to the United States Constitution. (Ex. of overseeing the
legislative branch).
- Not only does the Judicial Branch make laws but also ensures that each law is applied
and abided by the American people through precedents. This also is an example of
Judicial overseeing the Legislative branch. (Ex. of overseeing the legislative branch).
- The Judicial Branch oversees disputes in criminal and civil cases. Also, makes sure that
victims in cases get rewarded equally and the violators of the law get punished equally
just as the next person. EVEN OVERSEES THE PRESIDENT IN THE EXECUTIVE
