In the United States, citizens have quite a few options if they do not like the laws implemented by the government. The U.S. is a republic, meaning that power belongs not to a king or queen or dictator but to the citizens themselves. The most prominent way for citizens to use that power is by voting. They can vote for government officials (like senators, congressmen, or the president) who they think would represent their interests, just as they can vote AGAINST officials they dislike. There's also another kind of voting, called a referendum, in which the government asks the people to decide on a very specific issue (like whether a local highway should have a toll, for instance, or if the sales tax should be raised to help fund schools).

Citizens also have a constitutional right to "petition the government." This means that they are allowed to protest against laws and politicians (as long as they do so peacefully) and that they can send lobbyists to their government to ask politicians to change certain laws.

Vlad [161]

When  the courts are under the influence of the congress, There would be no establishment that can stop the congress from passing the law that violate the rights of the citizens.

Because of this, it is important to make the judiciary branch becomes a separate entity that can be controlled by the legislative branch (the congress). In case when the congress tried to pass a law that violate citizen's right or violate the constitution, the court of law can step in and prevent the law from being enacted.
