By Isaac Knittig
Executive Branch
The president and the vice president lead the Executive Branch. The president and vice president live and work in the White House in Washington D.C. The president's office is called the Oval Office. The president also is in charge of the Government and the Army, the Navy, the Marines, and the Air Force. Also, the president has a cabinet. The cabinet helps the president make decisions. The Executive branch gets the laws that the Legislative branch made. Next, the president signs the law. Finally, the president sends it to the Judicial Branch so they can incorporate the law. Also, the president can reject the law and put a veto stamp on it. Then, sends it back to Congress which is the Legislative branch. Congress can also overide the law. Overall, the Executive branch carries the laws.
