Legislative power over executive is clearly stipulated by the constitution. Besides making laws, the legislative is tasked with the duty of keeping the executive in check and vetoing any policies formulated by the executive.
The legislative branch of government has the 'power pf the purse' meaning that they essentially control what the government spends its money on. They are also the body through which bills must be passed. Congress can pass a bill that the executive does not agree with, or pass a bill that the executive wants. The legislative branch also has the exclusive right to declare war and can cease any hostilities that the president starts after 90 days.
None, he is not part of the executive branch but rather in the legislative branch.
The cabinet members are in the executive branch of government. This includes all people appointed to hold senior officer positions within the government.
One power that the legislative branch holds over the executive branch is that for certain things to be done, the president needs to have a certain amount of votes in congress, and if they do not get that, some things are not able to get done.
No. Congress (the Legislative Branch) holds the power of the purse, meaning they create the budget and decide what to fund and what not to fund.
The Legislative Branch of the United States government is the one that can confirm Presidential appointments. The Senate can sometimes hold a hearing to debate the issue and ask questions of the appointees before making a decision.
The President is chief executive of the Executive Branch of the US government.
The executive is selected by the legislative branch (usually, the head will be the leader of the party who won the most seats in the legislative election and that head picks their cabinet of executives). Usually, all high executive members (the cabinet) must be elected in the legislature to hold their position.
The House of Representatives , which is the lower chamber of the legislative branch of the US government, has the power to impeach the President. Impeachment requires the Senate to hold a trial which upon conviction by 2/3 of the Senate would remove the President from office,
legislative branch- proposes new laws, can impeach president Executive- carry out the laws, hold the president who is the commander in chief, and can veto laws appoint and fire judges etc Judicial- implements and enforces the laws
The executive branch.
The Presidency is a full time job; there is no way to hold down a second job as Senator while being President. It would also conflict with the constitutional concept of the balance of powers. The Executive branch is separate from the Legislative branch. One person cannot work in both branches of government.
