Under Article II of the Constitution, the President is granted the power to deal with foreign affairs: this can be entering and discussing treaties, policy decisions, meetings with foreign heads of state, and executive agreements. However, treaties that the President enters into must be approved by Congress (2/3)--these are called congressional executive agreements, and they can be ex-ante or ex-post. Further, Congress can delegate certain elements of its own powers, such as law-making, if it is deemed to be closely connected with the President's goals of foreign policy.

What role in foreign policy does the constitution give the states?

The U.S. Constitution primarily assigns foreign policy powers to the federal government, specifically to the President and Congress. However, states are granted limited roles, mainly through the power to enter into treaties with foreign nations, which is prohibited unless Congress consents. Additionally, states can engage in commerce with foreign entities and may have limited authority to interact with foreign governments, but these actions must not conflict with federal law. Overall, the Constitution emphasizes a centralized approach to foreign policy, limiting state involvement.

Identify one power the Constitution prohibits to Congress?

Many rights specifically granted to one branch of the US Government in the Constitution are thus prohibited to the other two.

The Congress may also not pardon prisoners, as that is a right given to the President.
