President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Feb. 19 requiring federal agencies to work with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut regulations that contradict the administration’s agenda.
The order directs all agency heads to coordinate with DOGE and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to review all regulations within their jurisdictions to make sure they’re consistent with the law and the president’s policies, prioritizing any that “impose heavy costs,” according to a fact sheet provided to The Epoch Times by a White House official.
