executive branch powers?

Question

can someone tell me the powers of the executive branch

Answer 1

Executive Branch = Carry out the laws.
Legislative = Create and implement the laws.
Judiciary = Interpret the laws.

The problem lies not with the identity of the three branches of government, but, with the establishing of the laws of the land.

In the famous "law" of roe vs. wade, it was never passed by the legislative branch, but, "interpreted" and accepted as law as too often the judiciary, through judicial activism, can create and enforce the laws.

Answer 2

The Executive Branch executes or enforces the laws. So, all law enforcement officers (city, county, state and federal level) and military are in the Executive Branch. It can introduce ideas, or bills, to the Legislative Branch to ratify or vote into law if it wants. Also, it can try to prevent the Legislative Branch's ideas, or bills, from becoming Law by exercising its veto power. However, thanks to the "checks and balances" of our form of government, the Legislative Branch can try again to make a vetoed bill into Law by getting a better vote in its forums--the House and Senate.
It can also nominate and try to appoint persons to certain positions in the Judicial Branch. Again those checks and balances come into play since the Legislative Branch has to approve those appointments.
The person in charge of the Executive Branch--i.e. the President of the US--also has to periodically report to the Legislative Branch on the general conditions of the country or the "state of the union".

Addendum: To clarify another answerer's answer. The Judicial Branch does NOT interpret the law. Attorneys and lawyers do that. The Judicial Branch determines or judges whether or not a law is constitutional. Also, it judges the actions or methods the Executive Branch performs in executing or enforcing the law.

Answer 3

Do a search for "US Constitution". Read the Article covering the executive branch. As in any Constitution the wording is not as specific as the actual legal statute but it covers the concepts and outlines the powers, duties, and responsibilities of the executive branch as seen by the "Founding Fathers".

BTW, this document should be read at least yearly by every citizen. Include the first ten amendments as a minimum after you finish the basic document. The rest of the amendments are important as well but the first ten are referred to as the Bill of Rights and address specific limits placed on the government.

Answer 4

executive branch mean the president have the right to enforce the law he got the last saying and he could veto any law that he or she doesnt like and so forth
