What powers does congress have when it comes to treaties?

In the United States, the Senate either accepts or rejects a treaty. That procedure was established by President Washington. He invited the Senate to help negotiate a treaty. When it became impossible, he took over the process of negotiating treaties. It has been that way ever since. There is no reason why it could not change and the senate could not participate in the negations. It has just worked that way. Still, getting the senate to cooperate would probably take a miracle, so it will probably stay the way it is.
