The President of the United States can write three types of executive actions: Executive Orders, Memorandums and Proclamations. The Tracker provided below will be updated on a recurring weekly basis, and will summarize all new executive actions issues under the new administration.
An Executive Order (“EO”) is directed to the government, such as government officials and agencies. They also dictate the actions of those officials and agencies. A President has certain powers and authority derived from the Constitution or a specific statute. If an EO is founded in that authority, it has the force of law. The EO must be published in the Federal Register and Code of the Federal Regulations (Title 3).
An Executive Memorandum (“Memorandum”) is similar to an Executive Order. However, they do not have to be published in the Federal Register nor do they have to cite the President’s legal authority. A “Budgetary Impact Statement” is not required for a Memorandum, either.
A Proclamation is focused on the activities of private individuals. Although Proclamations used to hold more weight, they are relatively ceremonial now. Proclamations do not hold the force of law in most cases. However, if the Constitution or statute gives the President authority for this type of law, then Proclamations will have the force of law.
LRC is tracking the Orders, Memos and Proclamations signed by President Trump and has categorized each one into the appropriate topical category. These publications have already prompted a significant volume of Related EO Litigation that may have an effect on lawyers across our country, which LRC is also tracking to help provide clarity in this new legal landscape.
LRC will continue to follow these presidential actions and the subsequent litigation that follows to help ensure lawyers know the changes are likely to have an impact on their practice.

73,764 | 1 | N/A | Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Iran | 03/12/2025 | The President of the United States has decided to extend the national emergency related to Iran for another year. This emergency was first declared on March 15, 1995, through Executive Order 12957. Over the years, multiple executive orders have been issued to expand sanctions and restrictions against Iran. The main reasons for keeping the emergency in place are Iran’s ongoing development of missiles, its military activities, support for terrorist groups, and actions by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. These activities are seen as a serious threat to the security, economy, and foreign policy of the United States. Because of this, the President is continuing the national emergency beyond March 15, 2025. This renewal is separate from a different emergency declared in 1979 related to the Iran hostage crisis. | Memorandum | 03/16/2025 10:05 AM | |

The President argues that the program has been misused in recent years, allowing some workers to receive benefits too early and giving taxpayer money to organizations that do not serve the public interest.

This includes groups that support illegal immigration, fund terrorist organizations, promote child abuse, or repeatedly break state laws. This order aims to ensure that only legitimate public service workers benefit from loan forgiveness and to prevent government funds from going to organizations that the administration believes do not serve the public good. |

The President explains that Bitcoin is a valuable digital asset, like "digital gold," because of its limited supply and strong security. The government already holds Bitcoin from criminal seizures, but until now, there has been no plan to use it strategically. The U.S. Treasury will oversee both reserves. All government agencies must report any Bitcoin or other digital assets they hold and transfer them to these reserves. Bitcoin in the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve cannot be sold and will be held for long-term national financial security. The Digital Asset Stockpile will hold other cryptocurrencies and may be used for law enforcement or other government purposes. The Treasury and Commerce Departments will also explore ways to acquire more Bitcoin without increasing taxpayers’ costs. However, the government will not buy other digital assets unless they come from criminal cases or penalties. This order aims to position the U.S. as a leader in digital finance and ensure the country benefits from holding and managing Bitcoin and other digital assets wisely. |

The original order was meant to help stop illegal drugs from crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, but it also affected American businesses that rely on materials from Mexico, especially the car industry. To address this, the new order removes the extra tariffs on some Mexican goods related to auto production. It lowers the tariff on potash, a material used in fertilizers, from 25% to 10%. These changes start on March 7, 2025. This order aims to balance border security efforts with economic stability and ensure that trade policies do not harm important industries like car manufacturing. |

The original order aimed to stop the flow of illegal drugs across the U.S.-Canada border by raising tariffs on certain imports. However, the government realized that some of these tariffs were also hurting the American car industry, which depends on parts and materials from Canada. To fix this, the new order removes extra tariffs on some Canadian goods related to automotive production. It also reduces the tariff on potash, a material used in fertilizers, from 25% to 10%. These changes take effect on March 7, 2025. This amendment aims to keep trade fair while still protecting the country from illegal drug trafficking |

The President believes that the firm has been dishonest, spreading false information in the past, trying to change election rules unfairly, and using hiring practices that discriminate against people based on race. To address these concerns, the following: Security reviews, government contracts, Investigating Discrimination, and limiting specific access. Any Perkins Coie employees with security clearances (permission to access secret government information) will have their clearances suspended while the government checks if they should still have access. Further, Government agencies must check if they have contracts with Perkins Coie or companies that work with them. If they do, they should try to cancel them. Also, the government will review big law firms, including Perkins Coie, to see if they have broken anti-discrimination laws. Finally, Government workers should avoid working with Perkins Coie employees, and agencies should not hire people from the firm unless they get special permission. This order aims to ensure that government resources and money do not go to organizations that the President believes are acting dishonestly, unfairly, or in a way that could harm national security. |

The order states that the individuals charged with her murder were illegal immigrants with ties to a criminal gang. The President explains that weak immigration policies in the past allowed dangerous individuals to enter the country and contribute to violent crime. Jocelyn was known for her kindness and love for animals, and renaming the wildlife refuge is intended to honor her memory. The Secretary of the Interior is directed to update all official references, maps, and documents to reflect the new name.

The President previously issued an order (Executive Order 14195) that placed a 10% tariff on certain Chinese imports because China was not doing enough to stop drug trafficking. However, since China has not taken more decisive action to address the crisis, this order raises the tariff rate from 10% to 20%. Simply, the order explains that fentanyl and other synthetic opioids coming from China are a significant problem, causing harm to public health and national security. The U.S. government wants China to work more closely with American law enforcement to stop the illegal drug trade. Since that cooperation has not improved, the U.S. is increasing financial pressure through higher tariffs. The goal of this order is to push China to take more decisive action against the production and export of synthetic opioids by making it more costly for Chinese businesses to trade with the U.S. |

The original order aimed to manage issues at the southern border, but some goods were allowed to enter duty-free under a rule called "de minimis treatment," which lets small shipments avoid tariffs. This new order changes that rule. It says that duty-free treatment for these small shipments will continue only until the Secretary of Commerce confirms that a system is in place to properly track and collect tariffs on them. The duty-free rule will end once that system is ready, and tariffs will apply to all covered goods. This order aims to ensure that tariffs intended to address border security issues are adequately enforced without allowing loopholes that could be misused. |

The original order made some imported products more expensive by adding these tariffs. Still, it also allowed specific low-value shipments to enter duty-free under a rule called "de minimis treatment." This new order changes that rule. It says that duty-free treatment for these small shipments will continue only until the Secretary of Commerce confirms that a system is in place to track and collect the tariffs on them appropriately. The duty-free rule will end once the system is ready, and tariffs will apply to all covered goods.

73,701 | 16 | 14225 | Immediate Expansion of American Timber Production | 03/01/2025 | This executive order focuses on increasing timber production in the United States to support economic growth, lower construction costs, and reduce reliance on foreign lumber. The President explained that the country has plenty of timber resources, but strict government policies have made it difficult to use them effectively. As a result, the U.S. has been importing too much wood, leading to higher costs and job losses. The order also highlights the importance of forest management in preventing wildfires and protecting wildlife. To fix this, the order directs the Department of the Interior and Department of Agriculture to create new policies that make harvesting timber from federal lands easier. Agencies must also work on speeding up environmental reviews, cutting unnecessary red tape, and setting yearly goals for timber production. Within 90 days, officials must report on how much timber should be harvested over the next four years. The order also calls for streamlining government regulations, reducing delays in timber-related permits, and making it easier to approve forest management projects. This order aims to increase American timber production, create jobs, and lower costs while maintaining responsible environmental practices. |

The order states that encouraging new Americans to learn English will help them find jobs, be part of their communities, and participate in national traditions. The order also cancels a previous rule (Executive Order 13166) that required federal agencies to provide services in different languages for people with limited English skills. However, it does not force agencies to stop offering multilingual services if they choose to do so. Instead, each agency can decide how to handle non-English materials while following its mission. The Attorney General is instructed to update government policies based on this change. This order aims to promote English as a unifying language while allowing agencies some flexibility in communicating with the public. |

Although the U.S. has plenty of trees and can produce most of its lumber, it has been importing more wood since 2016. Some foreign countries sell their timber and lumber at unfairly low prices, which hurts American businesses and makes the U.S. too dependent on other nations. To address this, the President is ordering an investigation to determine whether importing so much wood threatens national security. The inquiry will examine how much timber and lumber the U.S. needs, whether American companies can meet that demand, and whether foreign countries are using unfair trade practices. The government will also study ways to increase wood production in the U.S., such as making it easier to cut and process timber or adding trade rules like tariffs to protect local businesses. The Secretary of Commerce has 270 days to report back with findings and suggestions. These might include limiting imports, encouraging more U.S. wood production, or changing trade policies. This order aims to ensure America has a strong and reliable timber and lumber supply without depending too much on other countries. |

73,767 | 19 | N/A | Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Ukraine | 02/28/2025 | The President has decided to extend the national emergency related to Ukraine for another year. This emergency was first declared on March 6, 2014, through Executive Order 13660. It was implemented because specific actions threatened Ukraine's democracy, security, and independence. These included interference by individuals and groups, as well as the Russian government's military actions and takeover of Crimea. Since then, more executive orders have expanded the emergency to address Russia's continued aggression, including its recognition of separatist regions in Ukraine. The U.S. government considers these actions a serious threat to national security and foreign policy. Because of this, the President is keeping the emergency in effect beyond March 6, 2025. | Memorandum | 03/16/2025 10:23 AM | |

This emergency was first declared on March 8, 2015, through Executive Order 13692. It was put in place because of the Venezuelan government's actions, including human rights violations, suppression of political opponents, restrictions on press freedom, violent crackdowns on protests, and widespread government corruption. Over the years, more executive orders were added to strengthen the response to the situation. Since these problems have not improved and continue to threaten U.S. national security and foreign policy, the President is keeping the emergency in effect beyond March 8, 2025. | Memorandum | 03/16/2025 10:38 AM | |

73,774 | 21 | N/A | Defending American Companies and Innovators From Overseas Extortion and Unfair Fines and Penalties | 02/26/2025 | The President has issued a memorandum to protect American companies, especially in the technology sector, from unfair taxes, fines, and regulations imposed by foreign governments. Some countries have created digital services taxes (DSTs) targeting U.S. businesses, costing them billions of dollars. Other regulations make it harder for American companies to operate by limiting data flows, charging fees for internet use, or forcing them to fund local content. These actions weaken U.S. businesses, reduce American jobs, and pose risks to national security. To fight back, the U.S. government will take action against countries that impose unfair policies. This includes applying tariffs and other measures to protect American companies from discrimination. The U.S. Trade Representative will investigate foreign taxes and regulations, including those from France, Austria, Italy, Spain, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and Canada. The administration will also examine whether foreign policies force American companies to give up their intellectual property or restrict free speech. |

73,687 | 22 | 14222 | Implementing the President’s "Department of Government Efficiency" Cost Efficiency Initiative | 02/26/2025 | This executive order aims to reduce wasteful government spending and ensure that tax dollars are used wisely. The President wants federal agencies to be more transparent and accountable when spending money on contracts, grants, and loans. To do this, agencies must create new systems to track every payment they make and justify why the money is being spent. If an explanation is not provided, the agency must pause the payment until it is reviewed. The order also requires agencies to review all existing contracts and grants. A contract should be modified or canceled if it is unnecessary or too expensive. Agencies must complete this review within 30 days. Additionally, all new contracts will be closely monitored to prevent wasteful spending. Other cost-saving measures include stricter rules on government-funded travel, freezing most government-issued credit cards for 30 days, and reviewing federal property leases to see if any can be canceled. Agencies will also submit a plan for selling off unneeded government-owned property. This order aims to reduce unnecessary government expenses, improve oversight, and ensure that public funds are spent efficiently. |

The proclamation describes Washington as a visionary leader, a patriot, and a defender of American liberty who shaped the country’s government and inspired future generations. The document highlights Washington’s military leadership during the American Revolution, particularly his bold decision to cross the Delaware River in 1776, leading to a crucial victory. It also acknowledges his commitment to public service and his belief in putting America first. The proclamation calls on Americans to remember Washington’s sacrifices, leadership, and contributions to democracy. It encourages citizens to reflect on his legacy as the nation grows and matures. |

On February 19, 1945, U.S. Marines landed on the island of Iwo Jima, where they faced fierce Japanese resistance for 36 days. Despite heavy casualties, they persisted, with six Marines famously raising the American flag on Mount Suribachi—a moment that became an enduring symbol of American courage. By the end of the battle, nearly 7,000 American troops had died, and 20,000 were wounded. The battle awarded 27 Medals of Honor, more than any other battle in U.S. history. The proclamation highlights the lasting impact of this battle, recognizing that the victory at Iwo Jima contributed to Japan's defeat and secured American liberty. It also acknowledges that, despite the war, the U.S. and Japan have since become close allies. The President calls on all Americans to honor the sacrifice and heroism of those who fought, pledging that the nation will never forget their courage, patriotism, and dedication to freedom. |

The President explains that in the past, hospitals and insurance companies kept pricing information hidden, making it hard for people to compare costs and avoid overpaying. Previous regulations required hospitals and health plans to display their prices clearly, but enforcement of these rules has been weak, and many providers have not fully complied. The order requires government agencies to strengthen and enforce existing price transparency rules to fix this. Within 90 days, hospitals and insurance companies must disclose actual prices—not just estimates—and provide standardized, easy-to-compare cost information. The new rules will also ensure that pricing data is accurate and accessible to patients. This order aims to increase transparency and help patients make informed decisions about their healthcare. It also aims to encourage competition among providers and lower medical costs. |

73,682 | 26 | 14220 | Addressing the Threat to National Security From Imports of Copper | 02/25/2025 | This executive order ensures the United States has enough copper to support its economy and national security. Copper is essential for many things, such as making electronics, powering clean energy projects, and building military equipment. However, the U.S. depends too heavily on other countries for copper, and one foreign company controls more than half of the world’s supply. This could be a big problem if that company limits its sales to the U.S. The President is ordering an investigation to determine whether relying on foreign copper harms the country. The inquiry will examine how much copper the U.S. uses, how much is produced here, and whether foreign countries are unfairly controlling the market. The government will also study ways to increase copper production in the U.S., such as building more mines and refining plants or using trade policies like tariffs to reduce dependence on other countries. The Secretary of Commerce has 270 days to report back with findings and recommendations, including possible new laws or policies to help make sure the U.S. has a safe and steady supply of copper. This order aims to protect national security and ensure that America doesn’t fall behind in key industries that rely on copper. |

This emergency was first declared on March 1, 1996, after the Cuban government shot down two unarmed U.S.-registered civilian planes over international waters. Over the years, the emergency was expanded through different proclamations to prevent financial and material support from reaching the Cuban government. The U.S. government continues to view Cuba as a threat to international relations, particularly because of its history of using excessive force against U.S. vessels and aircraft in nearby waters. Additionally, there is concern that unauthorized U.S. vessels entering Cuban waters could trigger a large-scale migration from Cuba to the United States, which would be seen as a national security risk. Because these risks remain, the President is continuing the national emergency and maintaining special rules about U.S. vessels near Cuba. |

73,782 | 28 | N/A | Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Libya | 02/24/2025 | The President has decided to extend the national emergency related to Libya for another year. This emergency was first declared on February 25, 2011, through Executive Order 13566. It was initially put in place because of the violent actions of Colonel Muammar Qadhafi and his government, which used extreme force, including mercenaries and heavy weapons, against civilians. There were also concerns that Qadhafi and his allies might steal Libya's state assets. In 2016, the emergency was expanded with Executive Order 13726 to address ongoing violence in Libya, including attacks on government buildings, foreign embassies, and critical infrastructure. Other issues, such as human rights violations, violations of the United Nations arms embargo, and the illegal use of Libya’s natural resources, were also considered threats to the country’s stability and the security of the United States. The situation in Libya remains unstable, and there is still a risk that stolen assets could be misused by Qadhafi’s former allies and other groups. Because of these ongoing threats, the President has decided to keep the national emergency in effect beyond February 25, 2025. |

Agencies must report within 60 days which regulations should be changed or removed. The government will then create a plan to eliminate or modify those rules. Agencies are also told to focus their enforcement efforts only on laws that follow the Constitution and are supported by Congress. This order aims to reduce government overreach, ensure agencies are following the law, and support economic growth by removing unnecessary regulations. |

The President explains that federal law already says that undocumented immigrants are not supposed to receive most government benefits, but past administrations have allowed them to access specific programs. This order is meant to stop that from happening. The order requires all government agencies to review their programs and determine whether they are providing benefits to undocumented immigrants. If they are, agencies must follow the law and stop providing those benefits. The order also requires government agencies to ensure that money given to states and cities is not being used to support policies that protect undocumented immigrants from deportation, such as "sanctuary" policies. The order calls for better verification systems to ensure that only eligible people receive benefits. It also directs agencies to report any cases of benefits being improperly used to the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security. This order aims to ensure taxpayer money is used only for legal residents and citizens and to discourage illegal immigration by removing any financial incentives |

These agencies must submit reports explaining whether they are legally required to exist and their remaining duties. The order also directs the government to stop funding some advisory committees and programs, such as the Presidential Management Fellows Program, the Advisory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid, and the Community Bank Advisory Council. Additionally, officials must review other agencies and recommend more cuts within 30 days. This order aims to reduce the size and efficiency of the government by eliminating programs and agencies that the President considers unnecessary. |

This emergency was first declared on February 10, 2021, through Executive Order 14014. It was put in place because of the military coup that took place on February 1, 2021, when the Burmese military overthrew the democratically elected civilian government. After the coup, military forces arrested government leaders, politicians, human rights activists, journalists, and religious figures, rejecting the will of the people and undermining democracy and the rule of law. The situation in Burma continues to be a serious threat to U.S. national security and foreign policy. Because of the ongoing political instability, human rights violations, and repression by the military, the President has decided to keep the national emergency in place beyond February 10, 2025. |

The tariffs, effective April 3, 2025, apply to passenger vehicles—including sedans, SUVs, crossovers, minivans, and cargo vans—as well as light trucks. A 25% tariff on automobile parts such as engines, transmissions, powertrain components, and electrical parts will take effect no later than May 3, 2025.

Importers of automobiles under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) may submit documentation identifying the amount of U.S. content in each model imported into the United States, with the 25% tariff applying exclusively to the value of the non-U.S. content. The administration justifies these measures by highlighting vulnerabilities in global supply chains exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to protect the U.S. automotive industry, which is vital to national security. The proclamation also notes that previous trade agreements and efforts have not sufficiently mitigated the threat posed by imports of automobiles and certain automobile parts. |

74,046 | 228 | 14311 | Establishing a White House Office for Special Peace Missions | 06/30/2025 | Executive Order?14311 creates a White House Office for Special Peace Missions, headed by a presidentially appointed Special Envoy, to oversee high-stakes diplomatic initiatives. The office is explicitly housed within the Executive Office of the President, rather than the State Department, ensuring direct presidential authority over sensitive negotiations.

The order further directs that U.S. diplomatic and lobbying efforts expand to include this office alongside regular State Department contacts. Overall, EO?14311 signals a strategic shift toward streamlined, presidentially controlled peace diplomacy, altering the standard structure of U.S. foreign policy operations. | Executive Order | 08/06/2025 03:46 AM | |

The memorandum specifically instructs that Medicaid payment rates should not exceed Medicare rates, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The President criticized practices under the previous administration that allowed states and healthcare providers to manipulate funding mechanisms, such as "taxing" healthcare providers and returning the same funds as Medicaid payments, thereby unlocking additional federal "burden-sharing" payments. These State Directed Payments, which quadrupled to $110 billion in 2024, were deemed unsustainable and a threat to both the federal budget and access to care for seniors. The memorandum emphasizes the goal of preserving and protecting Medicaid for vulnerable populations by ensuring fiscal responsibility and program integrity. | Memoranda | 08/06/2025 05:11 AM | |

ICE asked the court to either dismiss the case or transfer the case to Louisiana. The court has made all court files available online.

Khalil was ordered to be released from custody on June 20. The government appealed the orders to the Third Circuit on July 18. On September 12, an immigration judge ordered for Khalil to be deported to Algeria or Syria, citing nondisclosure issues with his green card application.

Plaintiffs moved for a temporary restraining order against implementation, citing business failure and layoffs of their employees. An initial TRO was denied as being overbroad and not respecting the President's Article II powers despite irreparable damage. Plaintiffs brought this amended request for a TRO alleging the defunding actions as arbitrary and capricious, contrary to law in violation of the APA, violative of the separation of powers, violative of the Constitution's Take Care Clause, and ultra vires. Status: The court found that a narrow TRO could be granted as to the implementation of the blanket suspension of foreign funding. The remainder of the Plaintiff's TRO requests were denied for being overbroad by including specific directives regarding USAID personnel decisions or operational details. The TRO was only strenuously complied with by the Defendant. A series of appeals to the circuit court and then the Supreme Court by the Defendant followed. The Supreme Court ultimately held in a 5-4 decision, in regard to completion of the TRO and reimbursements on grants and assistance agreements, in favor of the Plaintiff. After the case returned to the lower courts, the government was order to pay nearly $2 billion in foreign assistance for work performed before 2/23/2025 but did not reject the review and termination of foreign aid contracts after that date. |

Plaintiffs in response filed an amended complaint for additional plaintiffs, seeking certification for a class action, and removed President Donald Trump as a defendant. On August 7, the class was certified and a preliminary injunction was granted. Defendants filed a notice of appeal on October 3. |

The EOs invoked the International Economic Emergency Powers Act (IEEPA), but the Plaintiff alleges that the IEEPA only confers powers to the President with limited authority which doesn't include the authority to impose tariffs. The two counts in the suit allege a violation of the Separation of Powers and that the tariffs are ultra vires. Status: Case pending. Plaintiffs are seeking a declaration that the tariffs are unlawful and void and an injunction against the Defendant from taking any action to implement those EOs. The Defendant filed a motion to transfer the case to the U.S. Court of International Trade, which was denied. The court dismissed the case without prejudice for lack of jurisdiction on June 2, 2025, which the Plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the Ninth Circuit on the same day. The Ninth Circuit granted a motion to hold the appeal in abeyance pending the Supreme Court's resolution of Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump. |

74,036 | 151 | 14188 | President and Fellows of Harvard College v. US Department of Health and Human Services (D.C.D. Massachusetts) Case No: 1:25-cv-11048 | 04/21/2025 | Facts: The Plaintiff represent Harvard University and have sued multiple federal agencies after receiving letters with a number of preconditions that the school must agree to in order to maintain federal funding. The agencies froze billions of dollars in contracts and grant fundings to Harvard following the university’s refusal to comply with the government’s demands. The Plaintiff challenges the Executive "Freeze" Order and the letters they received in connection with it, alleging violations of the Administrative Procedure Act through government action that is contrary to constitutional rights because it demands violate Harvard's First Amendment rights. They further allege First Amendment violations because the Order was issued in retaliation for Harvard's engagement in protected speech. They additionally claim the government's actions are arbitrary and capricious and are ultra vires. Status: Case pending. Plaintiff seeks a declaration that the EO and letters are unlawful and permanent injunctions prohibiting the government from violating the school's First Amendment rights and from terminating federal funding without complying with law. Plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment on June 2. On September 3, the judge ruled that the Administration's attempt to condition federal funding was violative of the 1st Amendment as well as Title VI and the Administrative Procedure Act. The judge granted and denied in part the Defendant's motion to stay based on lapse of appropriations on October 2. |

04/28/2025 | Facts: Plaintiffs are labor organizations, non-profits, and local governments. They are suing on the allegations that the reductions in force (RIF) are unconstitutional and unlawful. They allege the RIFs violate the Separation of Powers, the Administrative Procedure Act, and are ultra vires and arbitrary and capricious. Status: Case pending. Plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment that the RIF actions are unlawful and unconstitutional. They want a vacation of EO 14210 and a temporary restraining order and injunction against further implementation of the EO. The Plaintiff's TRO was granted, which was appealed to the Ninth Circuit. The Plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction was granted, halting widespread implementation of RIFs, which the Defendants appealed to the Ninth Circuit. The Ninth Circuit denied the Defendant's motion for a stay and the government on June 2 asked the Supreme Court to halt the judge's ruling limiting RIFs at federal agencies. On July 8, the Supreme Court stayed the preliminary injunction that had blocked the Trump Administration from implementing their Reduction in Forces. They also found that the EO was likely to be lawful, but that the lower court could still review individual agency plans on a case-by-case basis. The Ninth Circuit vacated the district court's preliminary injunction on September 19. |

They sued the Department of Justice over EO 14246 for terminating the firm's government contracts and denying members of the firm access to federal employees. The President accused the firm of engaging in partisan representation that supports "attacks on women and children based on a refusal to accept the biological reality of sex." The firm alleges that the EO is unconstitutional by violation the separation of powers, the 1st, 5th, and 6th Amendments, and the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause. Status: Plaintiffs are seeking a declaratory judgement that the order is unconstitutional and an injunction to stop its implementation. They also submitted for a TRO that enjoins part of the EO. On May 23, Judge John Bates granted the Plaintiff's motion for summary judgement. On July 21, the DOJ appealed this grant to the Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit. In September 2025, the D.C.

04/03/2025 | Facts: Plaintiffs are 19 states that are challenging some of the provisions of EO 14248 regarding election law. They argue that the President lacks authority to impose the changes to the election laws and ask the court to declare them unconstitutional and void. One of such proposed changes is a requirement for documentary proof of U.S. citizenship on voter registration forms and permission for the DHS and DOGE to review each state's voter registration lists. Plaintiffs allege the EO violates the Bicameralism, Presentment, Elections, and Electors Clauses, is ultra vires, and violates the National Voter Registration Act, Separation of Powers, and State sovereignty. Status: Case pending. The court has issued a preliminary injunction, temporarily blocking the EO, but the Trump Administration has appealed to the First Circuit. The District Court has denied the administration's motion to dismiss. |

10/06/2025 | Facts: Plaintiffs are local and national press organizations and journalists suing the Department of Homeland Security and Kristi Noem in her official capacity as Secretary of DHS for allegedly responding to media press coverage with a pattern of brutality designed to silence the press and civilians. The case is arising from a series of protests in the Chicago area around federal immigration facilities run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement where ICE officers targeted peaceful protesters, journalists, and religious practitioners engaged in protected 1st Amendment activities. The alleged misconduct includes use of pepper-spray bullets, rubber bullets, flash-bang grenades, tear gas, indiscriminate spraying, and the detention of journalists and observers when no threat existed. Plaintiffs allege this patterned behavior violates the 1st Amendment right to free speech and assembly, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, the 4th Amendment right to be free of excessive force and unreasonable seizure, and the Administrative Procedure Act. Status: Case pending. Plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief and have moved for a TRO to enjoin the Defendants from using force against journalists or using riot control weapons. On October 9, Judge Ellis issued the TRO enjoining the use of force against journalists or orders for crowd dispersal. The TRO was modified on October 17 to further enjoin federal agent actions by requiring agents to wear active body cameras while engaging in enforcement activity unless exempt under ICE or DHS plicy. |

A sanctuary jurisdiction is a city or county that limits local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities. After hearing about their reallocation of funds due to this basis, and not on the basis of risk as statutorily required, the State of New York filed suit. Status: On October 16, 2025, Judge Kaplan issued a permanent injunction order DHS to restore the millions of dollars in funding to the transit authority. The court found that the reallocation of money was arbitrary, capricious, and unlawful under the Administrative Procedure Act and violative of the terms of the grant. |

They allege the reallocation or termination of funds is unlawful because it violates the statutory and regulatory requirements that govern the grant funds and that the EPA's action is not based on risk or performance of the program itself. They allege the action violates the Administrative Procedure Act, the Constitution's Separation of Powers and Spending Clauses, and that the decision is ultra vires. Status: Case pending.

Learning Resources v. Trump (D.D.C.) 1:25-cv-01248 | 04/22/2025 | Facts: Plaintiffs are family-owned businesses whose products were greatly affected by the Executive Orders imposing tariffs on products imported from Canada, Mexico, and China. They sued the president under the assertion that the EOs exceeded the authority delegated to him under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, violated the Administrative Procedure Act, and were unconstitutional in violation of the separation of powers. They sought declaratory judgment and preliminary and permanent injunctions against implementing the tariff EOs. Status: The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on February 20, 2026 that the president does not have authority to unilaterally impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Justice Roberts wrote that the Act's authority to regulation importation does not encompass the power to impose tariffs. He invoked the "major questions doctrine," and reasoned that no president had ever used the Act to impose tariffs, the economic stakes dwarfed prior major questions cases, and that Congress has, historically, consistently delegated tariff powers only in explicit and limited terms. The Court also found that the district court of D.C. lacked jurisdiction and that the case must be held in the Court of International Trade. Three Justices concurred in the Opinion, but disagreed on if the major questions doctrine was necessary for coming to this conclusion. Three Justices dissented, arguing that regulation importation should plainly, by its language, encompass tariffs and that the major questions doctrine should not apply to foreign affairs statutes. |

Zaid is an attorney who claims the revocation of his security clearance hinders his ability to represent clients before government agencies by preventing him from accessing materials needed for his cases.

Prior to this reallocation of funds, EO 14159 directed DHS to ensure that sanctuary States do not receive access to Federal funds. That EO was permanently enjoined. It was after this injunction was issued that the DHS formally issued grant awards for their largest program, and the awards had significantly been reduced for some jurisdictions and increased for others. Plaintiffs allege violations of the Administrative Procedure Act and violations of the Spending Clause and principles of equal sovereignty. Status: Plaintiffs seek declaratory and injunctive relief and a temporary restraining order requiring DHS to rescind the awards. In December 2025, the judge granted a motion for summary judgment from the Plaintiff and denied a cross-motion for summary judgment from the Defendant. In doing so, the judge declared several decisions by the DHS unlawful and directed the Defendants to amend awards issued to the Plaintiffs. The government appealed this order to the First Circuit on February 20, 2026. |

They allege the Order unlawfully rescinds statutory funding in contravention of the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 and is an unconstitutional violation of the First Amendment. They argue the recission of funds is viewpoint discrimination and retaliation. This argument is supported by an accompanying Fact Sheet that the EO was based on the opinion that NPR and PBS distributed "left-wing propaganda" and listed news and editorial choices the President disagrees with. Status: Case pending. Plaintiffs seek declaration that the EO is unlawful and unconstitutional, and an injunctive and expedited relief barring termination of the funding.

74,159 | 166 | N/A | Tincher v. Noem (D. Minn.) 0:25-cv-04669 | 12/17/2025 | Facts: On December 4, 2025, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents began enforcement efforts in Minnesota as part of the federal administration's campaign of increased immigration enforcement. ICE agents allegedly responded with unlawful actions and tactics, including seizures, arrests, threats and intimidation, and physical assault of observers and peaceful protestors. In a class action complaint, Plaintiffs, a group of Minnesota residents, filed a complain alleging a violation of their First Amendment rights by retaliating against protestors and using force to chill protected speech, a violation of the Fourth Amendment by unlawfully detaining Plaintiffs and using unnecessary and excessive force, and an engagement in civil conspiracy to deprive Plaintiffs of these rights. Status: Case pending. Plaintiffs seek declaratory relief and a permanent injunction barring Defendants from further action and expungement of any records pertaining to Plaintiffs created during the course of these actions. While on January 16, 2026, a partial grant of the Plaintiff's motion would have stopped agents from arresting, threatening, or using force against individuals for recording or criticizing ICE activity, the Eighth Circuit quickly issued a stay of that injunction on January 21, 2026. On February 13, 2026, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint that expanded their challenge to show it was now supported by over 100 sworn declaration of cruel and immoral unconstitutional conduct. On February 19, the Eight Circuit stayed the appeals proceedings following the end of the Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis. |

These EOs did several things, including ordering agencies not to disburse funding appropriated through passed legislation such as the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Following these EOs, the Department of Energy and Office of Management and Budget worked to eliminate programs under those statutes and took actions to eliminate Congressionally created programs and make cuts in funding across the next several months.

They are seeking declaratory judgement and enjoinment of the actions via preliminary and permanent injunctions. Status: Case pending. |
