RE: If Lincoln had not died
How difficult is it for Congress or the Supreme Court (or a president) to revoke an executive order? From what I've read online, only two executive orders have ever been revoked.

RE: If Lincoln had not died
Since only two have ever been overturned, it would appear to be very difficult.

Truman's attempt to nationalize the steel industry in the 1950s and a 1995 order issued by President Clinton that attempted to prevent the federal government from contracting with organizations that had strike-breakers on the payroll (according to Wikipedia).

RE: If Lincoln had not died
Seeing the high number of Executive Orders President Clinton issued, and having worked there during his first term, I have to wonder how many of those orders were issued to Ledos of Georgetown or Manny & Olga's.

As has already been pointed out, three of the sitting Supreme Court judges are Jewish; the others are, indeed, Catholic. The historic aspect of the current court is that, for the first time in history, none of the sitting judges is Protestant. I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it. (Letter to James H. Hackett, November 2, 1863) |
