”… must “execute the government’s will.”"

I think that Ms Fiorina means the government’s constitutionally limited will.

I’m sure that Ms Davis, an elected official, swore to protect and defend the Constitution after she was elected.

But undoubtedly like many elected government officially, she probably needs to take some time to actually read the Constitution after swearing to protect and defend it. She would find the following in the 14th Amendment.

14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

As a side note, consider that Acts 22:25-29 indicates that Paul saved himself from being flogged by claiming his Roman citizenship.

“I think that Ms Fiorina means the government’s constitutionally limited will”.

When was the last time the Constitution got in the way of the Supreme Court in making laws out of thin air?
