Our country shouldn’t have a culture that believes laws are only suggestions, to be ignored when you don’t like them. Additionally, if the people don’t like a particular law, it shouldn’t be the Executive’s place to decide that that law no longer will be enforced. Instead, Congress should do its job and repeal the law. Way too many elected congressmen and senators don’t want to do the hard work of legislating, preferring to just pass vague bills and then insist that the Executive branch should define what they mean, so they can’t be held accountable for disliked actions at election time. Holding Congress’s collective feet to the fire is a good thing. Maybe they’ll repeal the laws being discussed. If not, we’ll know who to vote out and replace.
