Are there any central resources for these US politics things?

February 11, 2025 2:50 PM

- is there a place to see the text of these executive orders, ideally with commentary about what they actually require? As an example, I've heard some are for a department head to research funding than can legally be removed, and not directly removing the funding. - Is there anywhere with a list of ways to financially support the many legal challenges?

The President has a link to them all on the front page of WhiteHouse.gov.

Shepherd Mullin (a law firm) is keeping an updated Google sheet with the EOs here. I don't know a list of financial support options.

Guidance to agencies on interpreting the EOs and what they must do is being posted here.

This is probably not exactly what you're looking for, but The Federal Register is the official repository of all changes to US Regulations, including Executive Orders, public notices of pending changes and meetings, final rule changes, etc.

The White House has a page with Presidential Actions, which comes out before the Federal Register (because things have to be transmitted to the Federal Register before they are published "officially. They are _not_ "official" though, so be aware of that.

Not a complete answer to your question, but NARFE has an Emerging Threats to the Federal Community section on their webpage that can be helpful.

I'm not sure about a list, but I know Lambda Legal, Gender Justice League, and the ACLU all have lawsuits related to the latest executive orders.
