According to the US Constitution, Congress has "the power of the purse". This means that Congress approves the budget submitted by the President. It's one of the checks and balances built into the Constitution to ensure that one branch doesn't hold too much power.

As stated in the U.S. Constitution, the President must submit a proposed federal budget to Congress. Congress then prepares an appropriations bill to be signed into law or vetoed by the President.
