Similarly, in the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson (the author) stated that people are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable right: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Question 5: Which branch of the government is responsible for making laws?

<u>Legislative</u>

The Legislative branch consisting of a bicameral Congress is responsible for proposing, making and passing legislation. When Congress passes a bill, the bill is sent to the President for approval. If the President signs into the bill, it becomes a law. However, if the President refuses to sign it or rejects it, the bill is then sent back to Congress to allow the chambers to override the Presidential veto.
