There seems always to be a bit of a power struggle between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government. Congress passes legislation that the President is sometimes inclined to veto. Congress can attempt to override the veto, so there is mechanism in place to allow Congress to force its will in spite of an attempt by the Chief Executive to block it. The primary power that Congress has to limit the President's power is control of the Federal pursestrings. Congress decides where money will be spent, and how much.
