I posted this in team yesterday and didn't get many replies so I thought I would try it over here. I have a question regarding one of the president's executive orders.

4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.


A friend and I were discussing this one the today and we disagreed on what it exactly meant. He says that holder can decide what categories of people need to be considered prohibited. I say that that any new class of prohibited individuals would have to somehow be voted on by congress. What do you guys say?
Thanks in advance.

It probably means "Figure out a way to declare more people "dangerous".

I have no doubt that is what they want it to mean. What I am trying to understand is if it is that easy.  I don't think it is beause I think that would have to go before the legislature.  I am not sure though.

Anyone else have any idea?
