3. How does the president limit the legislative powers of congress?
kogti [31]

Correct answer choice for question 3 is :

D) By using the veto

Explanation:

When the president determines to deny a bill, the Congress can vote on it again. If two-thirds of the Congress vote in support of the proposal, they revoke the veto. The bill becomes a law. The legislative department can evaluate rules made by Congress and signed by the president. The president's powers are restricted in the method of limits and stability. As the head of the governing department, the president assures the implementation of the regulations in our country.

Correct answer choice for question 4 is :

A) He appoints all federal judges

Explanation:

Constitutionally, the President of the USA may not restrict the authority of the judiciary section. The Constitution is the base for all American laws, and the US Supreme Court is the final authority on what is or is not legal. The only authority the President has on the Supreme Court is the capability to elect judges to that court, with Congressional support. Which means the prevailing authority and the Conservative Congress will be struggling for a moderate judge whose version of the law is more to their desire.

Correct answer choice for question 5 is :

B) Commutation

Explanation:

The president's power to replace a condemned person's decision to make the penalty less severe is called Commutation. Presidents have restricted the ability to act unilaterally or make management judgments on their own. Presidents have used official orders as a way of performing important plans unilaterally. Using an event-count review, the incidence of administrative orders changes with substantive reforms in the president's legislative situation.
