Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

emergencies count
if you're actually interested, even the considerable powers granted in a state of emergency are defined by laws passed by Congress:

link you posted backs up what said
he more than could executive order this
choosing not to do anything except to make it a fundraising topic for the DNC
not trying to be both sides but the way this is playing out benefits BOTH sides but NOT the people
gives the democrats something else to say they voted on and it gives the republicans something else to be against
How is this an emergency? The dealing with emergencies here (personal interpretation) would be for national security emergencies or natural disasters to allocate resources. An individual citizen’s lack of access to a medical procedure, while tragic, fails to rise to that level.
The key bit you quoted has to do with deciding how and to what degree legislation will be enforced. Also remember that this is at the federal level, not the state level. So he can issue an executive order to keep the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies from enforcing any anti-IVF laws, similar to how they’ve directed the DEA to not pursue marijuana charges in states where recreational use has been legalized. hHe cannot simply write a law into existence, which is what would be needed for what you’re asking.

Unfortunately, this is something only Congress can fix, and I’m not holding my breath.
