The Constitution was drawn up by 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia during the summer of 1787 and ratified by the states in 1788. The Constitution defines distinct powers for the Congress of the United States, the president, and the federal courts. This division of authority is known as a system of checks and balances, and it ensures that none of the branches of government can dominate the others. The Constitution also establishes and limits the authority of the federal government over the states and spells out freedoms and liberties for U.S. citizens.  \nOverview  \nThe Constitution spells out in six articles (sections) the powers of the federal government and the states. Later amendments expanded some of these powers and limited others. The Constitution prevents tyrannical abuses of authority through the separation of powers: Each branch of government has its own responsibilities and cannot take action in areas assigned to the other branches. Congress enacts laws, leaving enforcement of the laws to the executive branch and interpretation of them to the judicial branch.  \nThe Constitution does not include the term separation of powers. The first three articles establish the separation mechanism and mark out areas of responsibility for each branch of government. Article I vests (places) the legislative power of the federal government in Congress. Only Congress can enact general laws applicable to all the people, such as outlawing counterfeiting or promoting a national environmental policy.  \nArticle II vests the executive power in the president, including the authority to appoint federal officials and to prosecute federal crimes. Congress cannot decide whether a particular person should be brought to trial for violating the law. Only the executive branch has that authority.  \nArticle III vests the federal judicial power, including the power to conduct trials, in the Supreme Court and in other federal courts that Congress creates. Neither Congress nor the president or executive branch officials can declare a person guilty. Only a judge or jury can make these decisions.  \nNo member of Congress may serve simultaneously as a member of the executive branch. This separation differs strikingly from the British practice, in which the prime minister and other executive officials are also members of Parliament.  \nThe Constitution divides governmental powers in other ways, both within the federal government and between the federal government and the states. Article I splits the legislative power by creating a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature—the House of Representatives and the Senate. This article also details the specific powers that Congress can exercise, including imposing taxes, maintaining a military, and setting import duties. Congress cannot exercise powers not enumerated (listed) in the Constitution. Article I, however, grants Congress the right to make laws that it deems “necessary and proper” to carry out the enumerated powers. This implied power gives Congress wide leeway in lawmaking.  \nConstitution Day resources available at: [http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/charters.html](http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/charters.html)  \nIndex  \nSchool Information  \nMissions, Purpose, and Objectives 2  \nLetter From the President ","cbCaitFzX54J6sMZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitFzX54J6sMZ","pdf",2428138,48,"English","# Constitution of the United States\n# Overview\n# Index\n## School Information\n## Admissions Information\n## Student Information and Services\n## Academic Information","[{\"question\":\"What is the Constitution’s role in defining U.S. government powers?\",\"answer\":\"The Constitution defines distinct powers for Congress, the president, and the federal courts and explains how authority is divided and limited.
