Since taking the oath of office on Monday, U.S. President Donald Trump has issued several executive orders that could significantly impact millions of Americans and immigrants. These include:

Immigration: Declaring a national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border, reinstating the “Remain in Mexico” policy, and banning asylum for border-crossing migrants. Trump also revoked automatic citizenship for children born in the U.S. to non-citizens.

Federal Workforce: Ending remote work for federal employees, banning new federal hires (except for military and security roles), and reinstating “Schedule F” to ease dismissals.

Gender and Diversity: Closing federal offices focused on diversity and equity and revoking transgender military service rights.

Capitol Rioters: Pardoning over 1,500 Capitol Hill rioters and dismissing related pending cases.

Energy: Promoting oil and gas production in Alaska, lifting restrictions on LNG exports, and exiting the Paris Climate Agreement.

WHO Exit: Initiating U.S. withdrawal from the World Health Organization.

TikTok Revival: Halting TikTok’s ban and restoring its operations in the U.S.

Trump’s swift actions align with his campaign promises and signal the return of his hardline policies.
