- President-elect Donald Trump plans to issue at least 25 executive orders on his first day in office, targeting a range of government policies and reversing many of his predecessor's initiatives to "make a big splash."
- Key orders will address immigration enforcement and border security, resuming construction of the U.S.-Mexico border wall and potentially ending birthright citizenship, which are expected to face legal challenges.
- Trump's administration aims to dismantle various equity and diversity measures introduced by the Biden administration, including transgender rights protections and mandatory diversity training for federal contractors.
- The drafting of these executive orders is being coordinated by figures like Stephen Miller and conservative think tanks such as the America First Policy Institute and Heritage Foundation.
- Many of these orders are anticipated to face immediate legal challenges from Democratic-led states and advocacy groups, underlining the political and legal battles to come in the new administration.
President-elect Donald Trump is preparing to issue at least 25 executive orders on his first day in office, dramatically reshaping a range of government policies and reversing many of his predecessor's initiatives. Sources close to the transition team have revealed that Trump aims to "make a big splash" with these executive actions, marking a departure from his previous term's approach.
The plan comes as a stark contrast to outgoing President Joe Biden's initial executive orders, which numbered 17 and primarily focused on undoing Trump's policies. Trump's new strategy is aimed at quickly implementing the promises he made during his campaign and delivering immediate changes in key policy areas.
Two of the most significant expected orders will address immigration enforcement and border security. One major focus will likely be the resumption of construction on the border wall with Mexico, an issue that has long been a cornerstone of Trump's campaign.

Despite potential pushback from states governed by Democrats, Trump's administration is confident in its ability to secure federal authority over immigration matters.
Another proposed order would aim to end birthright citizenship, which is currently protected under the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. This proposal, if implemented, would be met with immediate legal challenges. Trump's team is reportedly prepared for such battles, prepared to defend the order in court.
Trump's incoming administration also plans to systematically dismantle initiatives focusing on equity and diversity introduced by the Biden administration. This includes measures such as transgender rights, racial preferences and mandatory diversity training for federal contractors. One proposed order would review hiring decisions for evidence of identity-based biases, rather than merit.
Stephen Miller, the recently announced deputy chief of staff for policy, is overseeing the coordination of these executive orders, with much of the drafting work being done by conservative think tanks like the America First Policy Institute, the Conservative Partnership Institute and the Heritage Foundation.
The incoming administration also plans to take steps to revitalize the traditional energy sector. Orders are expected to promote increased domestic energy production and reverse environmental regulations put in place by the previous administration. These measures reflect Trump's oft-repeated campaign promises to "drill, baby, drill" and to promote fracking.
Potential legal challenges await
While many of these orders could face immediate legal challenges from Democratic-led states and advocacy groups, it is worth noting that previous Trump orders were often met with delay due to ongoing court battles. However, there are also dozens of actions that Trump can implement swiftly with the stroke of a pen, bypassing lengthy legislative processes.
In a recent interview with NBC's "Meet the Press," Trump highlighted his intention to undo birthright citizenship and strip federal funding from schools that teach critical race theory. He also promised to roll back protections for transgender students and limit diversity training for federal contractors.
As the Jan. 20 inauguration approaches, it is increasingly clear that Trump's first day as president will be marked by a whirlwind of executive orders aimed at reversing the Biden administration's policies and implementing his own campaign promises. The impact of these actions will be felt across a wide range of policy areas and will likely face significant legal and political challenges in the weeks and months to come.
The work on these executive orders appears to be diffuse, with some being drafted in Trump's de facto base in Palm Beach, Florida, and others being coordinated with conservative think tanks in Washington. As the transition to the new administration continues, it is certain that these executive orders will be a central focus of attention for both supporters and opponents of the incoming administration.
