Abstract

This chapter discusses discretion in line with legislative capacity. President Donald Trump's travel ban on numerous countries highlighted the dire need for discretion in US policymaking. The extent of discretion is based on the delegated authority and constraints. Congress takes incentives to delegate policymaking authority to the executive branch or better-informed policy actors in an effort to reduce uncertainty and cover every imaginable facet of the government. Moreover, the validity of the claims is recorded through the amount of money appropriated per page of the report that captures the concept of discretion. Thus, Congress could be assumed to have enough resources to restrict the discretion of ideologically opposed executive members.
