Executive Order 13765 was the first Executive Order signed by President Donald Trump.[1]
History
The executive order came on Trump's campaign pledges to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and occurred just hours after he was sworn into office. [2]
Executive order
Designed to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,[3][4] also known as "Obamacare", the order was broken into six sections:
- An attempt to seek efficient implementation of the law, focused on removing regulatory burdens during the repealment of the law.
- The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services and heads of other U.S. executive departments should waive, defer, grant exemptions or delay implementation any requirements of the act that would place fiscal burdens.
- Those department heads are also ordered to grant greater flexibility to states seeking to implement healthcare programs.
- Seeking an open market across state lines in the healthcare market.
- Compliance with the Administrative Procedure Act regarding implementation of the regulatory revisions within this executive order.
- The order does not impact the Office of Management and Budget and its work, does not impact the legal authority of any department head of a U.S. federal agency and does not grant any specific rights to anyone within the United States.
