Why was congress unwilling to give the president the power to veto bills?
Congress was not unwilling to give the President the veto power. Certain members of the Constitutional Convention were. Congress, as we know it today, did not write the Constitution. Some Framers of the Constitution did not favor the veto power, fearing it gave the President too much power of the legislative branch. In fact, many Framers felt the President should simply be an agent of the Congress subject to its direction and control.
Can the president recommend legislation to congress?
The US President can certainly make a draft of a law he would like to see the Congress to pass. A quick example is this: the president wants a bill created to allocate $100,000,000 for a mars exploration project. As this is a "money" bill, he could give the draft to a member of the House of Representatives. He can also make it clear that the bill is a priority. He cannot do anything more then that. He cannot make "legislation". If the bill passes the House & is approved by the Senate, then the President can sign the bill into law.
The executive branch's power to refuse to sign a bill is called?
