    Question: What are the powers of the United States executive branch?

    Answer: Article II of the United States Constitution explains the specific powers of the Executive Branch of government. In general, the executive branch of government concerns itself with enforcing and administering the law while the Legislative branch makes the law and the Judicial branch interprets the law.

    The head of the executive branch is the President of the United States. The executive branch has 14 major departments and several separate agencies. Executive branch agencies are sometimes referred to as bureaucracieslarge organizations composed of clerks, administrators, and other workers. Executive branch bureaucracies disperse funds, manage programs, provide services, and enforce regulations and laws. They also make rules that have the force of law behind them.

    I am a high school student doing research on the executive branch of the United States for my government class. I came to this site looking for information on executive powers and the evolution of the executive branch in our government since its institution, but this site showed me none of that information...Thank you.
