@seanmdav who decides if law is Constitutional or not? and at what point is this issue considered settled? -

But SCOTUS has weighed in and held that regulations are constitutional. President can't override that.

Regs are exec acts and can be reversed by exec branch, just as statutes can be repealed by leg branch
