Executive Order 13637 — Administration of Reformed Export Controls
This executive order delegates specific functions under the Arms Export Control Act to the Secretaries of State and Defense, revokes the previous 1977 executive order on export controls, and amends Executive Order 13222 to establish congressional notification procedures for certain firearms and Major Defense Equipment exports under Commerce jurisdiction, while also authorizing the Secretary of State to license Commerce-controlled exports when agreed with the Secretary of Commerce.

Proclamation 11043 — Modifying the Bears Ears National Monument
This proclamation drastically reduces the Bears Ears National Monument from approximately 1.36 million acres to about 121,096 acres (two units: Shash Jáa and Indian Creek), excluding roughly 1.24 million acres. The excluded lands open to mineral leasing, mining, and other disposition 60 days after signing. It disbands the Bears Ears Commission, restructures the advisory committee with state and local stakeholder representation, and directs Secretaries of Interior and Agriculture to prioritize grazing, recreation, access, and vegetation management in the remaining monument.

Proclamation 11044 — Modifying the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument
President Trump issued a proclamation drastically reducing the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument from approximately 1.87 million acres to about 181,541 acres, removing roughly 1.69 million acres from monument protection. The excluded lands will open to mining, mineral leasing, and other disposition 60 days after the proclamation date. The action reverses President Biden's 2021 expansion (Proclamation 10286) and reinstates a much smaller version closer to Trump's 2017 reduction, citing the Antiquities Act's "smallest area compatible" requirement and national security needs for domestic critical minerals production.

BEFORE
Executive Order 13957 — Creating Schedule F in the Excepted Service
EO 13957 created a new 'Schedule F' classification for federal career employees in policy-making or confidential roles, moving them from competitive service to excepted service. This allowed agencies to hire and fire these employees more easily without competitive civil service procedures or chapter 75 adverse action protections. The order required agencies to review and petition to reclassify eligible positions within 90 days (preliminary) and 210 days (complete).
AFTER
Executive Order 14410 — Implementing Schedule Policy/Career in the Excepted Service
