    Benefits from having an elaborate lawmaking process:

    Legitimacy: Strengths Congress as an institution, as people learn to understand that laws have gone through a tedious process before being considered as such. As a consequence, there is a higher level of respect and adherence to laws. The Balance of Power: By holding 2 houses, the government makes sure laws are not a product of interests from a particular political position. The system makes it increasingly difficult for a political party to have control of both houses.

    Disadvantages of having an elaborate lawmaking process:

    Tedious: The President can face numerous obstacles in trying to execute his proposals regarding public policy, as the process of converting a Bill to a Law may take a prolonged period of time.
