Based on the tapes from the oval office, Richard Nixon felt that because he was president that he was above the law. This meant that the normal laws of the Untied States did not necessarily apply to him.

However, this was not the reality of the situation. In the Supreme Court case Nixon vs. United States, the Supreme Court ruled overwhelmingly that Nixon was not above the law and had to hand over the tapes to the court. This ultimately resulted in the resignation of Nixon.

La respuesta correcta a esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Desafortunadamente la pregunta es vaga y está incompleta. No menciona ningún país en específico, fecha o alguna otra referencia que permita ubicar el contexto.

Sin embargo, podemos comentar que tras la implementación de reformas en algún país -por ejemplo, reformas legislativas para el número de representantes en el Congreso- tiene que pasar por diversos mecanismos internos de aprobación de las cámaras y comités para reestructurar el presupuesto y la asignación de recursos para abrir nuevas plazas de funcionarios públicos o legisladores, de acuerdo a las negociaciones y debates legislativos con el objeto de llegar a un acuerdo político entre partidos.
