This allows the executive to check the power of the legislative branch. This prevents the legislature from being able to coalesce all powers to itself.
Congress must present every passed bill and resolution to the President.
The president plays a significant role in the lawmaking process. The president can propose legislation to Congress, sign bills into law, or veto them. Additionally, the president can use their influence and platform to advocate for specific policies and rally support for legislation.
The President is supposed to recommend to Congress what new legislation he/she believes is needed, and after the House and Senate pass a bill, it is up to the President to either sign (accept) it or veto (reject) it. However, Congress is not obligated to follow the President's recommendations, and if the President fails to sign or veto a bill within ten days of receiving it (excluding Sundays), it automatically becomes a law if Congress is still in session at that time, and it automatically dies if Congress has adjourned by then. Congress can also override a President's veto with the support of two thirds of both Houses.
The President cannot unilaterally declare war without the consent of Congress. The President has to present evidence to Congress that a war would be necessary and legal. Thus Congress acts to check the President's power.
The president nominates a new candidate who must then be approved by congress. It's essentially the same process that's used to select cabinet members.
Committees, commissions, and boards are appointed by both the president and congress.
One way the President can check the legislative branch is by vetoing a bill. The President also has enormous influence as a public figure and can make his or her case directly to the American people.
They get approved by Parliament, similar to US process in Congress.
by veto
There is only one way to fill a vacancy in the vice-presidency as is specified in Amendment 25. The President selects a candidate and if both houses of Congress approve, he is the VP. Otherwise, the President makes another selection who must be approved. The process continues until Congress approves someone selected by the President.
The White House works with interest groups to mobilize their supporters to contact members of Congress. Effective change comes about through Congress as they are the lawmaking body of the American government, and bringing an issue to the attention of a Congressman is a good way to start that lawmaking process.
No, they can not. The President/Governor are the ones that signs a bill into law
