The thing is that US Congress can't make laws. It just can't. It's nonfunctional. When it does that's the rare exception, and it better be perfect the first time because you won't get so lucky twice.

Seems like they can, or you mean they can't 'make laws' that you personally care about?


IMO this link proves the poster’s point. We are passing 1-2 laws a week. So far the 119th congress has passed 104 laws

100 years ago, the 69th congress passed over 1500 laws, plus hundreds of continuing resolutions, treaties, etc https://www.loc.gov/collections/united-states-statutes-at-la...
