Plain-language summary

Auto-generated summaryWritten by claude-sonnet-5 from the order’s own text · prompt v4 ·

Delegates to the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Commerce, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, and the Secretary of Homeland Security (regarding the Coast Guard when not operating as part of the Navy) the authority under sections 301, 301a, and 301c of title 37, United States Code, to set rules on hazardous duty incentive pay, aviation career incentive pay, and submarine duty incentive pay for members of the uniformed services under their jurisdictions, without needing presidential approval. The Secretaries are directed to consult each other so that similarly situated service members receive similar treatment, unless the needs of their particular service require different treatment. The order revokes Executive Order 11157 and Executive Order 11800, both as previously amended, and states that it creates no enforceable legal rights for any party against the United States or its officials.

Claimed authority

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including sections 301, 301a, and 301c of title 37, United States Code, and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, 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 11157, June 22, 1964; EO 11800, August 17, 1974

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