To enact, perform, or make into law together with others; to legislate jointly.
From 'co-' (together) + 'enact' (from Latin 'enactus,' to establish). The prefix shows this is a shared or collaborative action.
When lawmakers coenact legislation, it means they're working together across party or group lines—which is increasingly rare and makes headlines when it happens.
