    A policy applied to federal agencies on the whims of the executive/administration (president+staff). (FBI, CIA, DHS, ICE, TSA, HHS, FDA, so forth…) Does not impact state law, judicials, or enforcement agencies.

    This will be sued over constitutionality in the courts

    Stacked courts will probably claim it’s constitutional

    Up to Congress to specifically and independently say it’s unconstitutional

    This Congress will probably not do that

    IF there’s another election, and the term limit is still adhered to, the next administration may chose to revoke it or alter it assuming they have differing policies.

    Rinse and repeat.

      Is there a process to make them official? Like is there a vote on them by Congress or something? Or are they automatically applied?
