Operative words

[The LCC] purported to revoke one executive order. We are asked to determine whether it acted within its lawful authority. We hold that it did not.... its plain text did not authorize the LCC to revoke Executive Order 20-18.... [We do not decide] whether Executive Order 20-18 was a legally valid or constitutional exercise of the Governor's authority, despite its limitation on religious gatherings.
