It's definitely a change in policy, without question. My point is that the pre-existing policy was in fact already based on the whims of one man, and that all this really represents is him changing his mind.
FWIW, I'm 100% in favor of reducing the power of the executive. Previous decisions by other executive agencies have declared things that I possess a felony without warning.
