Donald Trump signed a total of 220 executive orders during his first term, from January 2017 to January 2021. As of January 2025, 72 of them (33%) have been revoked, many by his successor, Joe Biden.

Notes

  1. On April 25, 2017, United States District Judge William Orrick III of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California ruled that Trump exceeded his presidential authority when he signed EO 13768 on January 25, 2017, directing his administration to withhold all federal funding from local jurisdictions deemed to be "sanctuary jurisdictions" including "sanctuary cities" by issuing a preliminary injunction.[10][11][12][13][14] Judge Orrick subsequently issued a nationwide permanent injunction on November 20, 2017, declaring that section 9(a) of EO 13768 was "unconstitutional on its face"[15][16] and violates "the separation of powers doctrine and deprives [the plaintiffs] of their Tenth and Fifth Amendment rights".[17][18] With lawsuits brought by San Francisco and Santa Clara counties, Orrick ruled that the Trump administration cannot set new conditions on spending approved by Congress.[19][20] Orrick said that the order was written broadly to "reach all federal grants" and potentially jeopardized hundreds of millions of dollars in funding to San Francisco and Santa Clara.[21]
  2. Supersedes: EO 13490 of January 21, 2009.
  3. Section 3 revoked by EO 14060 of December 15, 2021.[39]

  7. On March 15, 2017, Judge Derrick Watson of the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii issued a temporary restraining order enjoining the government from enforcing several key provisions of the order (sections 2 and 6). The judge claimed the executive order was likely motivated by anti-Muslim sentiment and thus breached the Establishment Clause of the United States Constitution. On the same date, Judge Theodore Chuang of the United States District Court for the District of Maryland reached a similar conclusion (enjoining section 2(c) only). The Department of Justice stated that it "will continue to defend [the] Executive Order in the courts".[54] Shortly following arguments from the state of Hawaii and the Department of Justice, the restraining order was converted by Watson into an indefinite preliminary injunction on March 29.[55][56] On May 25, 2017, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in Richmond, Virginia, refused to reinstate the ban, citing religious discrimination.[57] On June 1, 2017, the Trump administration appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court for the cancellation of the preliminary injunctions and to allow the order to go into effect while the court looks at its ultimate legality later in the year.[58] On June 26, 2017, the Supreme Court partially lifted the halt and would hear oral arguments for the petition to vacate the injunctions later in the year.[59] On October 17, 2017, Watson issued another temporary restraining order that was asked by the state of Hawaii. Watson's decision stated that the latest ban "suffers from precisely the same maladies as its predecessor" as it "plainly discriminates based on nationality" and as such violates federal law and "the founding principles of this Nation".[60] In June 2018, the Supreme Court upheld the third travel ban.[61]
