After completing Lesson 12, write an essay that answers all of the following prompt points:
· What are executive orders? In what ways are they different than Congressional legislation?
· What are the constitutional arguments for the legality of executive orders?
· What are the constitutional arguments against the legality of executive orders?
· In what ways might the swiftness of executive actions be good, and in what ways might
that same swiftness be problematic?
· Last of all and briefly, explain how you feel about the executive orders made by
Presidents Trump and Obama, and why.
