A.

Explanation: The governor proposing and funding a program, working with DPS to design it, and supervising its implementation are examples of the executive branch enforcing and administering laws/government programs. Options B, C, and D describe actions outside the governor's executive role (constitutional changes, a different agency campaign, and citizen petitions).
