No, the president cannot pass a law without congressional approval. In the United States, legislation must be proposed and passed by both chambers of Congress—the House of Representatives and the Senate—before it can be signed into law by the president. However, the president can issue executive orders to direct the operations of the federal government, but these do not have the same legal standing as laws passed by Congress.
