Limit the time that subsequent Presidents have: to nullify executive orders of previous Presidents to 24 hours or less.

Created by B.M. on February 02, 2014

Most incumbents to the Office of The President of The United States typically nullify some or most of the "Executive Orders" of previous administrations. I am requesting that this executive privilege be codified to law to include time limits that the incumbent must adhere to at the time of official capacity or the inauguration to office, which ever is appropriate. I recommend that the time limit to nullify previous "Executive Orders" would stand at a minimum of 1 hour after the authority to do so is at hand to the incumbent. I also recommend that the incumbent be limited to acting only on the previous administration, and none other.
