Which executive orders by obama bother you the most?

Edit; i agree 100% with your concern regarding the erosion of separation of powers. It seemed that the white house would bring their proposals to the senate, which would then die in the house.
But it's a chicken-egg thing. If the house repubs weren't an embarrassment then it might not be nessacary.
This 'executive reliance' was also most egregious under bush, when the iraq war vote was actually a vote to give the president free licence.

daca.
