The president can veto bills passed by Congress.
he can veto their bills, it is all part of the checks and balances system
The president can veto bills passed by Congress.
checks and balances
the president can veto bills passed by congress!
yes
One way the Constitution reflects the principle of checks and balances is in the way bills are passed. Every Bill that passes the House of Representatives and the Senate has to be signed by the President before it becomes law. If the President does not sign the bill, it returns to the Congress to be reconsidered.
Because if they dont they cant make good choices
Congress has to pass a law before it goes to the President. The President can veto the law. Congress can then over rule the president with a 2/3rds majority.
The system of checks and balances grew out of the separate institutions that share power under the Constitution of the United States. By the system of checks and balances, each branch of government exercises some control over the other branches. There are several ways this can be done. The executive can veto legislation passed by Congress. Congress, however, can override a veto by a two-thirds vote of each house. The federal courts can rule on the constitutionality of a law. The President can influence the courts by the people he appoints to the judicial branch. The Senate must approve such appointments.
it allows the president to check the house of representives (HoR) and the senate. Without that, the president would be a puppet. The democratic congress before Obama was elected would have gotten so many more bills passed. Because when Congress makes a law, they send it to the president (for approval). If he doesn't approve, he can veto it, therefore it doesn't become a law UNLESS over 2/3 of Congress voted for the law. See, that is a good example because neither the president (Executive branch!) nor Congress (Legislative branch!) have too much power! :)
