The president exerts some influence over the legislature as a part of the checks and balances by functioning as a chief legislator. The president plays a major role in encouraging Congress to pass certain bills, make laws, set legislative agenda, or take specific actions. Each bill passed by Congress is examined by the president and the president decides whether to sign it or veto it.
