Executive Order 14148 of January 20, 2025 

Initial Rescissions of Harmful Executive Orders and Actions 

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the 

laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows: 

Section 1. Purpose and Policy. The previous administration has embedded 

deeply unpopular, inflationary, illegal, and radical practices within every 

agency and office of the Federal Government. The injection of ‘‘diversity, 

equity, and inclusion’’ (DEI) into our institutions has corrupted them by 

replacing hard work, merit, and equality with a divisive and dangerous 

preferential hierarchy. Orders to open the borders have endangered the 

American people and dissolved Federal, State, and local resources that should 

be used to benefit the American people. Climate extremism has exploded 

inflation and overburdened businesses with regulation. 

To commence the policies that will make our Nation united, fair, safe, 

and prosperous again, it is the policy of the United States to restore common 

sense to the Federal Government and unleash the potential of the American 

citizen. The revocations within this order will be the first of many steps 

the United States Federal Government will take to repair our institutions 

and our economy.

are hereby revoked: 

(a) Executive Order 13985 of January 20, 2021 (Advancing Racial Equity 

and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government).
