Unbiased University: Everything You Need to Know About the Legislative Branch of the United States Government

UNBIASED University is in session! While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more.

In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we break down the Legislative Branch of the United States government (AKA Congress). How is Congress structured, what powers does it actually have, and how does the lawmaking process work in practice? We walk through the roles of the House of Representatives and the Senate, the constitutional authorities granted to Congress, the committee system that shapes most legislation behind the scenes, and the checks the legislative branch has over the executive and judicial branches.

Whether you’re looking for a refresher on how Congress functions or want a clearer understanding of how federal laws are created, this episode provides a straightforward, nonpartisan guide to the legislative branch and its central role in the American system of government.
