What to Know
- Donald Trump is expected to sign dozens of executive orders on Monday, targeting immigration enforcement and the federal workforce, among other interests.
- Trump also is expected to sign executive orders that would make it U.S. policy to recognize only male and female sexes and do away with diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives in the federal government.
- Over the weekend, he also promised to issue an order giving TikTok a reprieve from a law he set in motion during his first term in office, requiring it to divest from its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, over national security concerns.
- Signing ceremonies for at least some of the orders are expected at 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. ET.
- While some of his pledges are feasible under executive power, many others will likely face legal and Constitutional challenges.
