Who has the power to ratify treaties in the United States?

President.
Supreme Court.
Congress.
State governors.

The correct answer is: Congress.

Congress has the power to ratify treaties in the United States. The President may negotiate and sign treaties, but it is up to Congress to approve and ratify them. The Supreme Court does not have the power to ratify treaties, as their role is to interpret and apply the laws and Constitution. State governors also do not have the power to ratify treaties, as this falls under the jurisdiction of the federal government.
