Yes, Congress does have the power to limit the federal moneys that are spent by the President of the United States. The president must ask Congress to fund events such as wars that the country takes part in.

How does the presidency limit power?

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.

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.
