Today, U.S. Congressman Tim Burchett announced the introduction of legislation to codify three of President Trump’s Executive Orders. “Congress took the first step in implementing President Trump’s agenda in May when we passed the One Big Beautiful Bill. Now, it is time for us to codify the President’s Executive Orders into law,” said Congressman Burchett.
Executive Order 14290 aims to end taxpayer subsidization of biased media by ceasing direct funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting Board to National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS).
Executive Order 14293 focuses on providing regulatory relief to promote domestic production of critical medicines.
Executive Order 14292 seeks to improve safety and security in biological research by addressing dangerous gain-of-function research on biological agents and pathogens, which poses risks to American citizens.
“My legislation will make Trump’s Executive Orders law by cutting taxpayer funding from NPR and PBS, promoting medicine production here in America, and improving the safety of risky gain-of-function research. I will not sit on the sidelines when it comes to implementing the President’s agenda; I am taking charge to implement the mandate we have from the American people.”
