1. The power to try all impeachments.
2. The power to ratify treaties.
3. The power to advise and consent to all Executive Branch appointments made by the President.
With these three powers the Senate is able to limit the power of the Executive Branch.
This is called the use of the "checks and balance" system.

The Senate has the exclusive power to: I. Approve and ratify treaties. 2. Conduct impeachment trial. 3. Advise and consent on Presidential appointments to cabinet and judicial posts. This limits the power of the executive branch. It is an example of the checks and balances in the United States Constitution.

The Senate can veto an act of the President and can diminish the power of the Judiciary by changing the law organizing it.
