OH MY GOD I AM SO SORRY THE LINK DIDNT WORK. CLICK THIS!!

You can even have the story  read to you if you struggle with big words!!!

Write a paragraph summary of the article and then answer the following:
1. What options does a president have if Congress will not pass any legislation?
2. What is Speaker Boehner's reaction to the president's actions?
3. Why would Obama resort to using the executive order to get his goals accomplished?



EASY ONE!!! You're welcome.
