                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.

                Sec. 2. Revocation of Orders and Actions. The following 
                executive actions are hereby revoked:
