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, and consistent with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 U.S.C. App.), 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

Continued by: EO 13652, September 30, 2013; See: EO 13498, February 5, 2009; EO 13569, April 5, 2011

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