The current Congress, controlled by Republicans, is heading toward being the least productive in decades, which is very different from how things were during the first term of the Trump administration. As of now, President Trump has only signed five bills into law, a number that is much lower than what past administrations had achieved by this point. This is a big difference compared to 2017, when this stage had 35 bills signed during the presidential term, the highest number ever recorded.
This major drop in the number of laws being passed shows the serious problems the Republican party is facing, even though they hold majorities in both the House and the Senate. There are many reasons for this unusual lack of progress in passing laws. According to CNN, one of the biggest factors is the disagreements within the Republican Party itself.
