President Trump Kicks Off Term with Flurry of Executive Actions

Since returning to office, President Donald Trump has issued an unprecedented number of executive orders, marking a decisive start to his administration. Within his first week, he signed nearly five dozen executive actions, outpacing his initial term in 2017, when he issued only six in his first week. These actions signal a clear shift in federal priorities and a swift dismantling of key policies from the Biden administration.

Trump’s early executive orders have targeted a wide range of issues, from halting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives to reversing environmental and infrastructure policies.
