"executions cannot go ahead without presidential approval."

What is the exact text of the law, and its legislative history?

Absent that, the thought experiment has little traction for me. If the law was not intended to give POTUS the power to nix execution for any reason or no reason, but has narrower scope, not including moral objections to the death penalty, then POTUS is abusing its power.
