Newly inaugurated President Joe Biden signed seventeen (17) Executive Orders upon completion of the swearing-in ceremonies. So far, with promises of more to come, the orders and directives can be grouped around the following topics or themes: those designed to repeal or replace policies implemented by former President Trump, those addressing the ongoing COVID-19 health emergency (vaccine rollout), some that freeze Trump decisions, while others are intended to set the nation in an entirely different direction.
