The powers of executive orders are vast yet come with limitations. Executive orders enable the President to create directives that manage operations of the federal government without Congressional approval. These orders can address pressing issues, streamline administrative processes, or implement policies quickly. However, executive orders cannot infringe upon existing laws or alter statutory frameworks; Congress holds the authority to enact or amend laws. Additionally, executive orders can be challenged in courts, leading to judicial review that may uphold or invalidate such actions. Thus, while executive orders serve as powerful tools for executive action, they operate within a defined legal \(and political\) context.
