The legislative branch is often referred to as the “Law Making Branch” of government.
This is because its primary function is to create, amend, and repeal laws that govern the country. In many democratic systems, such as the United States, this branch is composed of two houses – the House of Representatives and the Senate – which work together to represent the electorate and ensure that laws reflect the will of the people. While the term ‘legislative branch’ is the official terminology, referring to it as the law-making body captures its core purpose and responsibilities in governance.
