GENE GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise to highlight the growing
number of executive orders issued by President Trump and the silence
from our House majority. President Trump has signed 12 executive orders in the first 5 weeks
in office. Many, like the border wall, the Muslim ban, and the ACA
sabotage order, are highly misguided and exceed the intent of the law. Congress has a constitutional duty to oversee and investigate the
actions of the Executive. To date the House majority has said little
and taken no action to oversee the Trump administration's abuse of
power through executive orders.
