Who has the power to propose and approve treaties in the United States?

President.
Supreme Court.
Congress.
State governors.

The correct answer is: President.

The President is the chief diplomat of the United States and has the power to propose and approve treaties with foreign nations. While the Supreme Court may interpret treaties, they do not have the power to propose or approve them. Congress also has a role in the treaty-making process as they can ratify or reject treaties proposed by the President, but they do not have the power to propose or approve them. State governors do not have any role in the treaty-making process at the federal level.
