Re:Belarus to create a regulatory environment for circulatio... by tptacek on Friday December 22, 2017 @03:17PM (#15990568)
If you're referring to EO's issued by the President of the United States, you should be aware that EO's only have the force of law within two scopes of power:

* power delegated to the President by statute passed by Congress

* powers explicitly and exclusively delegated to the President by the Constitution (of which there are few)

It's a misconception that the President can issue an "executive order" that overrules Congress. Such an order would have no force, and would fail in front of a federal court --- you saw this with the original Trump Muslim Ban.
