It is therefore worth considering whether Congress should either take these powers for themself, in full or at least in part. One interesting reform proposal, suggested by UMB law professor Ben Yelin, would essentially be modeled after the Congressional Review Act:

After a president issues a pardon, it would not go into effect for 45 days.

During that period, Congress can pass a joint resolution of disapproval, which would not be subject to a filibuster in the Senate.

The resolution would be presented to the president, who could sign or veto. In the case of a veto, Congress could override it with a two-thirds majority.

If the resolution does not pass or veto is sustained, the pardon goes into effect.

If resolution is signed or veto overridden, the president cannot issue a pardon for that individual for the remainder of that term.

The whole "not subject to a filibuster" clause is problematic, because the filibuster isn't in the constitution. Also, asking the president to "sign" an over-ride of his own veto seems sub-optimal.
