That is often the way it works. However, there is no special power to propose legislation: any person can propose legislation. Often, the Executive branch will propose legislation, or a special interest group. Even a single citizen has the right to propose legislation, but the discussion, debate, and vote on the passage of the bill is a power that only Congress has.
It is interesting to re-iterate: the President and Executive branch is under no obligation to make a proposal for the agenda. It is just a tradition as presidents often have many campaign promises that they intend to fulfill. Very ironic indeed, as the president has no real authority to pass any laws whatsoever.
