<P> In the United States, an executive order is a directive issued by the President of the United States that manages operations of the federal government and has the force of law . The legal or constitutional basis for executive orders has multiple sources . Article Two of the United States Constitution gives the president broad executive and enforcement authority to use their discretion to determine how to enforce the law or to otherwise manage the resources and staff of the executive branch . The ability to make such orders is also based on express or implied Acts of Congress that delegate to the President some degree of discretionary power (delegated legislation). </P> <P> Like both legislative statutes and regulations promulgated by government agencies, executive orders are subject to judicial review and may be overturned if the orders lack support by statute or the Constitution . Major policy initiatives require approval by the legislative branch, but executive orders have significant influence over the internal affairs of government, deciding how and to what degree legislation will be enforced, dealing with emergencies, waging wars, and in general fine - tuning policy choices in the implementation of broad statutes . As the head of state and head of government of the United States, as well as Commander - in - Chief of the United States Armed Forces, only the President of the United States can issue an executive order . </P> <P> The United States Constitution does not have a provision that explicitly permits the use of executive orders . The term executive power in Article II, Section 1, Clause 1 of the Constitution is not entirely clear . The term is mentioned as direction to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed" and is part of Article II, Section 3 . The consequence of failing to comply could possibly be removal from office . </P> <P> The U.S. Supreme Court has held that all executive orders from the President of the United States must be supported by the Constitution, whether from a clause granting specific power, or by Congress delegating such to the executive branch . Specifically, such orders must be rooted in Article II of the US Constitution or enacted by the congress in statutes . Attempts to block such orders have been successful at times when such orders exceeded the authority of the president or could be better handled through legislation . </P>
