14 Executive Orders Signed By President Trump In His First 7 Days In The Office. by Explorers(m): 7:44am On Jan 29, 2017
12 executive orders and presidential memorandums Obama signed within his first seven days of office.


But the president has signed 14 executive actions in his busy first week, beating his predecessor.



1. Weakened the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), Executive Order, January 20.

This limits the ACA by allowing agencies to ease requirements by the 'maximum extent permitted by law.'



2. Regulation freeze, January 20.

Any regulation that has been signed but not approved (most within the pastfew weeks before Obama left office) will have to be approved until someone appointed by Trump's team can review them.



3. Mexico City Policy, January 23.

Trump reinstated the ban which blocks government funds from going to agencies in other countries that provide abortions.



4. Withdrawal from Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations, January 23.

Trump has consistently called TPP a 'bad deal.'



5. Federal Hiring Freeze, January 23.

With the exception of military personnel and critical public safety positions, federal agencies are blocked from hiring vacant positions or open new ones.



6. Dakota Access Pipeline, January 24.

Trump ordered permits for the controversial Dakota Access Pipeline which was shut down earlier this month after protests.



7. Keystone memorandum, January 24.

Trump invited TransCanada to reapply for a pipeline and encouraged the State Department to approve it within 60 days.



8. Hastening environmental reviews, Executive Order, January 24.

Trump ordered the White House Council on Environmental Quality to shorten deadlines for approval for 'high priority' infrastructure projects.



9. USA made steel pipelines, January 24.

The president directed the Commerce Secretary to ensure pipelines are builtand repaired with American steel.



10. Manufacturing regulations, January 24.

Trump ordered the Commerce Secretary to begin a 60 day review of manufacturing regulations.



11. Deportations and sanctuary cities, Executive Order, January 25.

In the order, Trump writes: 'Sanctuary jurisdictions across the United States willfully violate Federal law in an attempt to shield aliens from removal from the United States.''These jurisdictions have caused immeasurable harm to the American people and to the very fabric of our Republic.'



12. The Mexican border wall, Executive Order, January 25.

Following up on his most famous campaign promise, Trump said he will: 'secure the southern border of the United States through the immediate construction of a physical wall on the southern border.'Mexico has said they will not pay for the wall. Trump has said the United States will be reimbursed. Mexico has denied this.



13. Reshaping the military, January 27.

The memorandum directs the Secretary of Defense to implant a long term strategy.



14. Blocking of Syrian refugees indefinitely and 90 day freeze on entry to theUS from people from countries with a 'high terror' risk, January 27.

Though not specifically banning Muslim immigrants like he proposed during the campaign, Trump is blocking refugees and visitors from Syria, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Sudan and Somalia.

He called for 'extreme vetting' of these refugees.
