In 3 sentences , Describe how the three branches of U.S government each work to check and balance the power of the others. Give examples of how these checks and balances keep any one branch from becoming too powerful
The legislative branch, consisting of Congress, can check the power of the executive branch by passing laws that limit the President's authority. The executive branch, led by the President, can check the power of the legislative branch by vetoing bills passed by Congress. The judicial branch, including the Supreme Court, can check the power of both the legislative and executive branches by interpreting the constitutionality of laws and executive actions. By having these checks and balances in place, no one branch of government can become too powerful and infringe on the rights of the American people.
