Question

In what way does the executive branch check the powers of the legislative branch?

A) It can declare laws unconstitutional.
B) It can veto laws.
C) It can create laws.
D) It can override a veto.

Answer 1

In order for the Legislative Branch to pass a bill into law, the President (Executive Branch) must sign it. The President can check the Legislative Branch by vetoing it: not signing a bill into law. The President nominates candidates for Supreme Court Justices (Judicial Branch). In doing this, he checks the Judicial Branch by nominating candidates that would balance the power in the Supreme Court (or tip it into his favor).
