National laws are made in Congress, which is part of the legislative branch and is made up of the House of Representatives and the Senate. Congress can make laws on all kinds of matters, such as setting speed limits on highways or regulating how much radon may be found in drinking water. During each Congress, which lasts two years, senators and representatives introduce about 10,000 bills. During that time, about 650 bills are passed by Congress and then signed into law by the president

The federal legislative branch makes laws (made up of The House of Representatives and the Senate)
The President of the United States can make laws in the form of Executive Orders (like going to war sort of)
Judges can make laws (called judge-made law or common law)
On the State level, a State Representative, State Senator, and Governor makes laws.
On the local level, City Councils makes "laws" called city ordinances.

Congress passes all laws for the federal government. States and cities pass local laws. The more stringent law of state and federal is usually the law which applied. How they are interpreted is decided by case law, which is a court decision pertaining to a certain law.

The people who is in the Legislative Branch and the president will pass the law or veto it. Maybe the Judicial Branch looks at the law and decide it is unconstitutional or constitutional.

The real answer is the big corporations. and the lobbyists like the Israeli lobby AIPAC. If you are looking for the "process", then you have to do more research using google.
