Tracking All of Biden's Executive Orders

Summary from the AllSides News Team

President Joe Biden has signed more than 20 executive orders during his first week in office. This week, Biden signed orders aimed at combatting racist and discriminatory practices and prioritizing climate change action, as outlined by incoming Chief of Staff Ron Klain in a memo released earlier this month. Klain said that between Jan. 25 and Feb. 1, Biden will focus on criminal justice reform, healthcare access and immigration system and border policies. Biden has signed more orders in his first week than any president in history; former President Donald Trump issued five in his first week as president. Biden's notable executive orders have been widely covered by outlets across the political spectrum; many provided analysis of the individual orders. Some right-rated outlets compared Biden's actions to those of Trump and other past presidents.
