The Cost for 9 of Obama’s Executive Actions: $31 Billion

The Cost for 9 of Obama’s Executive Actions: $31 Billion: The American Action Forum has determined that President Obama’s executive actions have cost taxpayers $31 billion and that covers only nine of them. This should come as no surprise, as Obama pledged he would circumvent Congress, as he said so famously in 2014: “I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone… I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball.”
