FIGHTING BACK? GOP-Controlled State Legislatures Looking At Bills On “Constitutionality” Of Executive Orders

Since taking office, Joe Biden has signed 105 executive orders.

During his first week in office, he signed a record number of executive orders.

Some GOP-controlled state legislatures have taken steps to look at the “constitutionality” of these executive orders.

Missouri State Rep Brian Seitz is sponsoring a bill that would require state lawmakers to scrutinize some presidential executive orders.

Similar bills have popped up in other states where Republicans control the state legislature.

Alabama, Utah, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Iowa, and South Carolina have all considered bills looking at the “constitutionality” of executive orders since Biden took office.

The Epoch Times reported:

Rep. Brian Seitz (R-Branson) will enter his third session when the Missouri General Assembly convenes in Springfield on Jan. 4 and, for the third time, he is sponsoring a bill that would require state lawmakers to scrutinize and, potentially disregard, some presidential executive orders.

Under his proposed House Bill 174, the Missouri House must review all presidential executive orders not affirmed by a Congressional vote to determine if “they are, in fact, Constitutional,” Seitz told The Epoch Times.

If the Missouri House has questions about the constitutionality of a presidential executive order, the bill requires it be referred to the state’s attorney general to determine if it “restricts a person’s constitutional rights.”

Since Democrat Joe Biden was sworn in as president in January 2021, similar bills have been introduced in at least nine other Republican-controlled state legislatures: Alabama, Utah, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Iowa, and South Carolina.

More GOP state lawmakers should introduce these bills!
