Anticipated Impact

This order rescinds 18 executive actions that had been issued by the Biden-Harris administration. The rescinded orders sought to improve lives of Americans through raising the federal contractor minimum wage, calling for the protection of LGBTQ+ rights in America's foreign affairs, investing in biotechnology, preventing arms trades that would risk violating human rights, boosting support of tribal sovereignty, and more. Rescinding these orders demonstrates the Trump-Vance administration's abandonment of ordinary people and policies to promote stability, security, peace, and human rights.
