George Washington was a Federalist, and also the first American president. He allowed for the charter of a Federal Bank, and he also signed the Jay Treaty, which helped America and Great Britain avoid war until the War of 1812.

Washington was not a president who signed legislator, but rather one who set example for other presidents to come. He set up the two term presidency, which was only broken by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and he also sought for America to be isolated from European affairs. These are the things that Washington is better known for, rather than his legislative successes.
