BIDEN EXECUTIVE ORDERS/JOE BIDEN: “President Biden will unleash a full-scale assault on his predecessor’s legacy on Wednesday [Jan. 20, 2021], acting hours after taking the oath of office to sweep aside former President Donald J. Trump’s pandemic response, reverse his environmental agenda, tear down his anti-immigration policies, bolster the sluggish economic recovery and restore federal efforts aimed at promoting diversity.

Moving with an urgency not seen from any other modern president, Mr. Biden will sign 17 executive orders, memorandums and proclamations from the Oval Office on Wednesday afternoon, according to his top policy advisers.”
