In the United States, citizens do not vote directly on most federal government spending or tax decisions, as these powers are primarily handled by elected representatives in Congress. However, they do have indirect influence through elections, where they can choose representatives who align with their views on fiscal policies.

On a state and local level, citizens have more opportunities to vote directly on certain spending and tax issues, particularly through ballot initiatives and referendums. Many states allow voters to approve or reject specific tax proposals, bond measures for public projects, or changes to state spending limits.
