Legislative has the power to make laws.
It is the Legislative Branch of government that makes the laws. The U.S. Congress, composed of the Senate and the House of Representatives, handles that chore in America.This branch of government is different from the Executive Branch and the Judicial Branch of the Federal Government. Those two branches enforce and execute the law, and interpret the law, respectively.
The executive branch is meant to carry out the powers of federal government...this branch is headed by the President...The legislative branch is the one meant to make the laws...:)
The Judicial branch's job is to make sure that the laws and actions taken by the government are constitutional(they don't go against the Constitution).
The people who have the power to make laws are politics, the government and the president.Added: (This answer applies to the US only) ONLY the Legislative Branch of government has the power to propose and pass laws. They forward the legislation to the President who will sign the legislation which turns it into law. The Executive Branch of government carries out the laws, and the Judicial Branch of government passes judgement on them. Other nations have different and/or varying processes.

It was Montesquieu's idea to separate the government into three branches: a legislative branch to make laws, an executive branch to enforce the laws, and a judicial branch to make judgments based on the laws. This was called the separation of powers. (Which is the type of government the US uses.)
