The Impact and Risks of Executive Orders

President Donald Trump's use of executive orders has raised discussions about their implications and effectiveness. While these orders allow the president to bypass Congress, they carry considerable risk as they can easily be challenged or reversed by courts and future administrations. For example, Trump's recent executive order affecting the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program has faced pushback from humanitarian organizations highlighting the program's importance for the resettlement of persecuted individuals. The ongoing debate emphasizes the balance between immediate executive action and the long-term stability that comes from legislative approval.
