  • President Donald Trump began his second administration with a blitz of policy actions to reorient U.S. government priorities.

The article from News4JAX outlines the initial executive actions taken by Donald Trump upon assuming the presidency. On his first day in office, Trump signed several executive orders and memoranda aimed at reversing policies of the Obama administration. Key actions included withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), reinstating the Mexico City Policy which restricts federal funding for international groups that perform or promote abortions, and beginning the process to dismantle the Affordable Care Act (ACA) by minimizing its impact where possible without Congressional action. Additionally, Trump issued a hiring freeze for some federal government workers, expedited environmental reviews for high-priority infrastructure projects, and took steps towards building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, although this was more symbolic at the time. These actions were part of Trump's strategy to fulfill campaign promises and set a new direction for his administration's policy priorities.
