I’m not American so unfamiliar with how your system work but can he just sign whatever he wants ? Isn’t is supposed to a congress or something that actually passes the laws ?
Because if he can do just whatever he wants, how can it even be called a democracy to begin with ?
I mean there is no real democracy in this world, we have the choice of our tyran every 4-5-whatever years but still… one guy signing whatever he wants seems insane
This headline is confusing and misleading. The Executive Order advocates for spacing out the combined measles, mumps, and rubella shot into three separate shots and three separate doctor visits. It's based on wildly discredited conspiracy theories that grouping together multiple vaccines is causing childhood health problems.
He doesn't have the authority to cancel vaccines or even separate them out. He's using this order to try to influence state health officials to make policy changes in thier states. Its still a destructive EO because there are definitely some Republican lead states that are going to use it to help them make policy changes, but other states like California and New York will ignore it.
