Checks on the Presidency Practice Test

Impeachment, because passing a limiting statute is the constitutional method for removing emergency powers and immediately removing the president from office.

Advice and consent, because limiting emergency transfers requires a two-thirds Senate vote to ratify the restriction as a treaty under Article II.

Commander in chief authority, since Congress cannot limit emergency actions once declared; Article II makes presidential funding decisions final and unreviewable.

The power of the purse, as Congress uses legislation and appropriations rules to restrict how executive officials may spend or transfer federal funds.

Veto override, because any statute limiting transfers automatically becomes law even if the president vetoes it, without two-thirds votes in Congress.
