Our constitution is specifically written to prevent the executive branch of government from creating legislation. It is unconstitutional for the president to create any new spending program without a supporting bill passing both houses of congress.

All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.
