It takes legislation.

But no doubt this SCOTUS with find some loophole that will allow it.

States will try to regulate anyway against the "force" of an EO. The feds try to block it based on the EO. States sue the government under states rights, or exec overreach, or separation of powers. It'll end up in SCOTUS. I figure at least three years for this to clear, one way or the other.
