The Senate is the upper house of Congress, the legislative branch of the U.S. government. The Senate is responsible for considering and approving legislation, conducting trials for impeachment cases, and ratifying international treaties. As the upper chamber of Congress, the Senate does not have a chief executive, rather the Senate is chaired by the Vice President.
The Vice President is the ceremonial presiding officer of the Senate and is the only individual able to cast a tie-breaking vote. The Vice President's role as chair is largely ceremonial, as they do not manage the agenda of the Senate or oversee day-to-day operations. Rather, the Senate is managed by the President pro tempore who is the longest-serving member of the majority party.
The President pro tempore is the leader of the majority party in the Senate and chairs daily activities. This includes chamber procedure, organizing the debate, referring to committee, and presides over voting. The President pro tempore is chosen by the majority party and is third in line for the presidency.
The Vice President's ceremonial role as chair of the Senate is critical to the functioning of government. Without the presence of the Vice President, Senate voting would lack the authority of the executive branch, and the legitimacy of the Senate's decisions would be called into questions. Consequently, the Vice President's role as the chair of the Senate is integral to the functioning of the legislative branch.
