The president also plays a leading role in federal legislation and domestic policymaking. As part of the system of separation of powers, Article One of the UR Constitution gives the president the power to sign or veto federal legislation.  Since modern presidents are typically viewed as leaders of their political parties, major policymaking is significantly shaped by the outcome of presidential elections, with presidents taking an active role in promoting their policy priorities to members of Parliament who are often electorally dependent on the president. In recent decades, presidents have also made increasing use of executive orders, agency regulations, and judicial appointments to shape domestic policy.

Article One, Section One of the Constitution vests all lawmaking power in [[United Republic Parliament|Parliament's]] hands, and Article One, Section Six, Clause Two prevents the president and all other executive branch officers from simultaneously being a member of Parliament. Nevertheless, the modern presidency exerts significant power over legislation, both due to constitutional provisions and historical developments over time.
