Plain-language summary
Revokes seven prior presidential actions: Executive Order 13772 on core principles for regulating the financial system, Executive Order 13828 on reducing poverty through economic mobility, a January 2020 memorandum delegating certain authority under the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute, Executive Order 13924 on regulatory relief for economic recovery, a September 2020 memorandum on reviewing federal funding to state and local governments over permitting unrest, Executive Order 13967 on promoting federal civic architecture, and Executive Order 13979 on agency rulemaking accountability. Directs the Director of the Office of Management and Budget and heads of executive departments and agencies to promptly consider rescinding any rules, guidelines, or policies implementing these revoked actions, consistent with applicable law including the Administrative Procedure Act, and to abolish any positions, committees, or task forces created under them. States it does not alter existing legal authority of agencies or the Office of Management and Budget's budgetary functions, and creates no enforceable rights against the government.

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.
