Congress doesn't issue/authorize executive orders. The president does.

Yes, but he generally needs some Congressional authorization to issue executive orders that affect the general public. I know the lines have been blurred but the legislative power still lies with Congress, not the President.

Think about this for a second.

There is an Executive Branch, and a Legislative Branch (leaving out the Judiciary here).

One is Legislative (they pass laws) and the other is an Executor.

What part of an Executive Order do you think the Legislative Branch would be involved in?
