Original Note:
The Appropriations Clause of the Constitution (Art 1, Sec9, Cl7) establishes that the power of the purse belongs to Congress (not the President). https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S9-C7-1/ALDE_00001095/ Therefore, the elected president promised relief that only Congress can provide. No political intent is relevant here.
