One check that the legislative branch has on the executive branch is the power to impeach the president. This allows Congress to remove the president from office for misconduct or wrongdoing if they believe it is warranted.

One check that the executive branch has on the legislative branch is the power to veto legislation. When Congress passes a bill, the president can reject it, preventing it from becoming law unless Congress can override the veto with a two-thirds majority in both houses.
