We shall consult with, and seek input from, the Congress on approaches and programs to meet the objectives set forth in this directive.

Thanks for posting the document. Appreciate it.

The only mention of Congress in the document is quoted above (emphasis mine).

Of course, the Executive can't emit orders to Congress, but it makes you wonder -- does Congress have a role in this scenario?

You underestimate the authority assumed under the document. Congressional personnel will be relocated to the appropriate facility, formerly that located beneath the Greenbriar Hotel in west Virginia, [used for rehabilitation of of injured and psychologically damaged troops during WWII; particularly officer POWs] now the High Point Special Facility at Berryville, VA. Key members are to be evacuated as high priority VIPs, others are rated in varying order, with some to be placed on lists for pickup with their families by military police and armed FEMA personnel for transfer to other relocation facilities until it can be determined when- and if- they're to join their fellows at the other operations centers.
