A: Yes, the president can *suggest* pretty much anything they want. However, an amendment must go through a rather complex process, starting with 2/3 of both houses of congress (or the state legislatures) proposing it, then 3/4 of states approving it.
The White House can only suggest that the Congress consider a bill to become a law. However, only a member of Congress is allowed to propose the bill directly to Congress.
Article V of US constitution describes the method of introducing an amendment in the constitution. For an amendment to be instituted, it has to be approved by both houses of US Congress with a two third majority. An amendment approved in such a manner does not require President's approval and is directly sent to states for ratification.
Five entities that can propose laws to Congress include: individual members of Congress (both House and Senate), the President of the United States, state legislatures, advocacy groups and lobbyists, and citizens through initiatives or petitions. Members of Congress draft and introduce bills, while the President can propose legislation in the State of the Union address or through other communications. State legislatures and advocacy groups can influence federal legislation, and citizens can suggest laws through grassroots movements.
he can suggest one to reps but he can't actually make a bill
Article 1 lays out the duties of the legislative branch. Section 7 says that all bills for creating taxes must originate in the House of Representatives. It also says the Senate has to concur and can suggest amendments as they can on other bills.
No, he did not. Under the American system of government, a president can propose or suggest a new policy, and he can advocate for something he would like to see become a law. But he cannot make any laws. Only congress can do that. Congress votes on a bill, and if the bill gets enough votes, it becomes a law. After that happens, the president can either sign it or veto it. But the laws themselves still come from the congress.
While the President can suggest legislation, the actual letter of the law (specifics) is written by Congress. If a bill is passed by Congress than the President can sign the bill into law or veto it, having another impact on law-making.
Not on his own. He can introduce amendments all he wants, but the consent of everybody else is needed. (Senate, House of Representatives, and something else.) If all three of those guys sign for the ratification of an amendment, then it is the president's choice to either ratify or veto it.
The U.S. President cannot introduce a bill, but it is part of his/her job to suggest to Congress what bills are needed.
if martial law is declared, a president can make up or bypass whatever laws he wishes. although under normal conditions it isn't that simple. it has to be voted upon in the senate, congress before going to the supreme court to be finally made a law.
Absolutely not. The constitution is very clear about that: the President can ask, suggest, bully or beg Congress to legislate, but only the Congress can write (and pass) a law. The president can veto any legislation he doesn't like, which makes it harder for Congress to pass it, but it is still possible to pass legislation over the President's objection.
The president, in the beginning of each congress, gives ideas to legislation in the state of the union address. In a more simple way, his job is to address congress about what needs to happen and suggest laws.
