What does checks and balances do?

Answer 1

It helps the United States government's individual branches from having one branch more powerful than the other branch, making for a biased government. The system of checks and balances keeps the government's branches from becoming biased or one branch completely taking over the other two.

Answer 2

The framers of the Constitution didn't want a central government that was too strong, since they had experienced such hardships previously. That's why they created the "checks and balances" program. They divided the government into three main groups: executive, legislative, and judicial. Each branch checks each other's power, and balances it by using their own. For example, the president (from the executive branch) can veto a law that was passed by the Congress (legislative branch). But Congress can override the veto by getting 2/3 approval in both the houses (Senate, and House of Representatives). Likewise, the Supreme Court (judicial branch) can deem a law passed by Congress unconstitutional and stop it from being passed. This way, no single branch of the government can become stronger than the other.
