Because the entire way they tried to go about doing this was a fustercluck. There's no way to accurately describe which of the federal programs you want frozen, and differentiate them from the programs you don't want frozen, in a paragraph or three. If you want to freeze a bunch of programs that you think conflict with your EO's in a way that only catches those programs without confusing the hell out of everyone, the only real way to do it is to come up with a list of the things you want frozen. Not leave it to everyone else to figure out what you actually want to happen.

This I'll agree with. They wanted to blanketly get rid of a lot pork and bad spending, but didn't think through the level of resistance they'd get.
