The legislative branch can check the power of the executive branch by having the power to impeach the President.
One example of the legislative branch checking the power of the executive branch is the power of impeachment. Impeachment is the process by which Congress can formally charge and potentially remove the President, Vice President, or other high-ranking government officials from office. The House of Representatives has the power to bring impeachment charges, while the Senate holds the trial and votes on whether to convict the impeached official. This serves as a way for the legislative branch to hold the executive branch accountable for any alleged misconduct or abuse of power.
