This document is a legal analysis, likely from a government entity like the House Oversight Committee, detailing the constitutional basis for U.S. Presidents to refuse to enforce laws they deem unconstitutional, often through the use of presidential signing statements. It cites several opinions from the Office of Legal Counsel (O.L.C.) and provides historical examples from the administrations of Presidents Wilson and Eisenhower to support the executive's authority. This document is unrelated to Jeffrey Epstein and contains no information about him or any associated individuals, events, or entities.
