The legislative branch is the law-making entity. The executive branch usually sets the agenda, which policies they are pursuing and which they don't like, etc. Legislators usually respond to the executive branch, especially in terms of political party. For example, a Democratic executive branch might focus on one policy, and a Republican congress might be interested in undermining it. Approved by eNotes Editorial Team

The judiciary largely has no role in this. The bulk of this is done by the executive branch since the governmental agencies that carry out policy belong to that branch.
