Nothing appears in this space without a citation to a court action or a cited precedent. An order with no such record is described as untested, never as likely or unlikely to survive.

Claimed authority

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered

Quoted from the order as written. Many orders cite nothing more specific than “the Constitution and the laws”; this reproduces what the order claims, not an assessment of whether it holds.

Disposition

Revokes: EO 12933, October 20, 1994; Revoked by: EO 13495, January 30, 2009

Compiled after the fact by the National Archives, so recent orders often have none yet. An empty disposition means no record, not no activity.
