In the United States, an executive order is a directive by the president of the United States that manages operations of the federal government. The legal or constitutional basis for executive orders has multiple sources. After the President signs an executive order, the White House sends it to the Office of the Federal Register (OFR). The OFR numbers each order consecutively as part of a series and publishes it in the daily Federal Register shortly after receipt.
During his first day in the office, President Donald Trump signed 26 executive orders, and 33 more during his first 100 days in office. Since then, a total of 75 have been signed by Trump.
