Any judicial review of this Executive Branch decision would have to be heard in a US District Court first, and until someone has standing, the district courts won't accept the case.
In the United States, properly enacted laws and regulations are presumed to be constitutional until it is demonstrated in court that it is not. |
As I understand it obtaining standing sufficient to bring a case can be difficult to obtain. Just having your rights violated isn't enough, there has to be some measurable negative consequences.
IE a law that violates someones right to free speech cannot be challenged unless it has been used to actually deny someone from speaking.
