This is not a law.
Changing agreed upon congressional spending requires a law.
By not forcing an arrest or even fighting the executive order congress is legitimizing and approving the order.
This is/was letting a contract expire. It's not something that was brought up to the level of congress. Up until the last few years of supreme court decisions agencies were founded with broad powers in their domains, including discontinuing sub-programs.
That's how it' supposed to work. None of this has been brought to a vote, which would give Democrats the opportunity to oppose it. For "some reason" congressional Republicans are continuing their prior strategy while being a majority and having the leadership of just, not doing things.
