The responsibility for creating and implementing government policies lies primarily with the executive branch, led by the President in the United States. However, the legislative branch, specifically Congress, plays a crucial role in drafting and approving laws that shape policies. Various government agencies and departments, under the executive branch, are tasked with executing and enforcing these policies at local, state, and federal levels. Ultimately, while the President proposes policies and oversees their implementation, collaboration with the legislature and federal agencies is essential for effective governance.
