Plain-language summary
Amends several prior executive orders and reestablishes an advisory body. It changes Executive Order 12824 to make the Transportation Distinguished Service Medal available to any member of the Armed Forces, rather than only the Coast Guard. It updates Executive Orders 12835 and 12859 to replace the Assistant to the President for Energy and Climate Change with the Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality among the members of the National Economic Council and Domestic Policy Council. It corrects a regulatory citation in Executive Order 13532 concerning Historically Black Colleges and Universities. It reestablishes the President's Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, originally created under Executive Order 13498, to terminate two years from this order's date unless extended. It also revokes Executive Order 13507, which had established the White House Office of Health Reform, and states it creates no enforceable legal rights.

Legal standing
Not yet published. Court challenges, injunctions and rulings tied to individual orders will appear here once each can be linked to its source record.
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.

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.
