The Senate has always jealously guarded its power to review and approve or reject presidential appointees to executive and judicial branch posts. The Constitution gives the Senate the power to approve, by a two-thirds vote, treaties made by the executive branch.

The Senate has the sole power to conduct impeachment trials, essentially serving as jury and judge.
