What must happen before a presidents budget can be put into action?
Before a president's budget can be put into action, it must go through a series of steps. First, the president submits the budget proposal to Congress. Then, Congress reviews and analyzes the budget, making changes and adjustments as needed. After the budget is finalized and approved by both chambers of Congress, it is signed into law by the president. Only then can the budget be implemented and funds allocated accordingly.

How many budgets were passed by congress under George W. Bush?
When the Republicans controlled both houses of congress, in the fiscal years covering 2001-2006 congress did pass or approve three of President Bush's budgets; it should be noted that even with a majority, approval of the budgets was not a speedy process. But the 2004 budget had various areas of disagreement, and even with a Republican majority in congress, no final budget passed. (Generally, when a final budget cannot be agreed upon, it is either passed through separate appropriations bills; or temporary extensions and other stop-gap measures are used, so that the government has enough money to function.) There was a budget agreement in 2005, but again, in 2006, there was not. The 2007 budget also ran into problems, especially after Democrats took over control of the congress, officially, in January 2007, but that budget was finally agreed upon, and so was the final budget President Bush submitted, although again, with a number of modifications.
