By circumventing the legislative process now, I believe the President is making it much harder to address those problems. “The Congress should review its best options and then act responsibly to address the President’s actions and ensure the primacy of the rule of law.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
