$15 per person

Executive orders are one of the most common ways a president can unilaterally implement policies. Only one president failed to sign any, and each president since 1880 signed over 100 of them. This session reviews the history of executive orders, how they work, how they can be challenged, and how they differ from other executive actions, including presidential memoranda and proclamations.
