How does the president limit the legislative powers of Congress?
D. by administering the laws
C. by appointing congressional committee chairs
B. by using the veto
A. by appropriating congressional spending
B. by using the veto
The correct answer is B. by using the veto.
The President has the power to veto bills passed by Congress. By exercising this power, the President can limit the legislative powers of Congress by preventing them from passing laws without the President's approval. After a bill is passed by Congress, the President has the opportunity to approve or veto it. If the President vetoes a bill, it can still become law if it is overridden by a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. However, the President's veto power significantly influences the legislative process and can effectively limit the power of Congress.
