President Trump has used executive orders a lot—more than 210 times this year alone. Executive orders are shortcuts a president uses to make rules or direct government agencies without needing Congress to pass a law. While these can be helpful for quick action, the problem is overuse. Too many executive orders can lead to confusion, because they can be changed just as fast by the next president, and often bypass the normal checks and balances that Congress provides. This creates uncertainty for government workers, businesses, and everyday people who need stable rules to plan their lives.
In Georgia, this heavy use of executive orders is felt in daily life. For example, orders have changed things like how schools handle physical education, tariffs on imported goods, and healthcare drug pricing. These quick changes can disrupt local programs and services because Georgia’s schools, businesses, and health clinics have to adjust rapidly and often with little warning. For everyday Georgians, that means they may face confusion about what government programs are available, how to access them, or what new rules they must follow. It also means less chance for public debate and input on important decisions. While executive orders let the president act fast, relying on them too much can make people feel like their voices don’t matter and that government rules shift too quickly to trust.
