() President Donald Trump will put pen to paper Monday, signing a slew of executive orders relating to ending diversity, equity and inclusion programs within the federal government, strictly defining two sexes and enforcing heightened border security.

The president is expected to make good on several campaign promises on his first day in office, but many of his executive orders will likely come up against legal opposition in the coming days.

An executive order is a signed statement about how the president wants the federal government to be managed. They can come in the form of instructions to federal agencies or requests for reports.

“Today I will sign a series of executive orders. With these actions, we will begin the complete restoration of America and the revolution of common sense,” Trump said during his inauguration speech Monday.

Trump is expected to sign these executive orders Monday afternoon:

• Border
• Diversity and inclusion
• Free speech
• Energy
• Armed forces
• Renaming Gulf of Mexico, Mount Denali

Border-related executive orders

Trump will declare a national emergency at the southern border 

This order would help the secretary of defense quickly and seamlessly deploy members of armed forces to the border and free up more federal resources.

Trump will end catch and release of migrants

Border czar Tim Homan said the Trump administration would be ending the federal “catch and release” program, which allows immigrants who entered the country illegally to remain in the country as long as they are in the process for asylum.

“Stay in your homeland,” Homan told last month. “Be safe. Crossing into this country illegally is very dangerous.”

Trump will reinstate the ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy

During his first term, Trump implemented the “Remain in Mexico” policy, also called “Migration Protection Protocols,” which required asylum-seekers to stay in Mexico until their claims were processed. Democratic President Joe Biden’s administration ended the policy in 2022.

Under the order, this policy would be reinstated.

Trump will resume border wall construction

Trump began construction of the southern border wall during his first administration in an effort to prevent illegal crossings. Under the order, work would resume.

Trump will designate cartels as global terrorists

After being elected, Trump revived a campaign vow to designate Mexico’s drug cartels as terrorist groups.

“I will immediately designate the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations,” Trump said.

While in office in 2019, Trump dropped the plan at the request of Mexico’s then-President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who said he wanted U.S. cooperation in fighting drug gangs.

Trump will suspend refugee resettlement for 4 months

Trump, who put tight limits on refugees in his first term, has vowed to “suspend refugee resettlement” for four months as part of a broader effort to “immediately end the migrant invasion of America.”

Trump will end birthright citizenship

The president said he would end birthright citizenship, the right of children born in the U.S. to claim citizenship regardless of their parents’ immigration status. The 14th Amendment guarantees American citizenship to anyone born in the U.S.

Only constitutional amendments, not executive orders or legislation, can change the Constitution. Trump said he intends to issue an executive order to end the practice, though executive orders cannot overturn constitutional amendments.

Trump will direct the military to prioritize borders

White House officials said the order would “clarify the military’s role in protecting the territorial integrity of the United States” by sending military personnel to the border, pushing the Department of Defense to erect barriers and green-lighting the use of drones and other surveillance measures.

Trump will order enhanced border vetting and screening

Under this order, the president is expected to tighten up the vetting and screening of migrants entering the country.

Diversity and inclusion

Trump will define gender as two sexes 

Trump officials said the order will direct federal agencies to enforce laws in order to protect men and women as distinct sexes and use sex, not gender, in federal policies and documents.

The Trump administration will maintain there are two sexes, “male” and “female,” and that “they are grounded in incontrovertible reality,” one official said.

Trump will end federal DEI programs

This order will end funding for DEI funding in the government and will direct the Office of Management and Budget and the Office of Personnel Management to end “illegal mandates, preferences.”

Free speech

Trump will end government censorship

The president said he would sign an order “to immediately stop all government censorship and bring back free speech to America,” during his inauguration speech.

Energy

Trump will declare national energy emergency

Trump will declare an “energy emergency,” ending leasing to wind farms and withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord, among other measures under the order.

He said he will make America “a manufacturing nation once again” by ordering mass oil drilling, which he plans to export “all over the world.”

Armed Forces

Trump to sign order reinstating expelled service members

Trump said he will sign an order reinstating service members who were “unjustly expelled from our military for objecting to the COVID vaccine mandate with full back pain.”

He also said he would sign an order to “stop our warriors from being subjected to radical political theories and social experiments while on duty.” It is unclear what Trump is specifically referring to.

Renaming the Gulf of Mexico, Mount Denali

Order will rename the Gulf of Mexico

Trump will issue an order to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.

Trump to rename Mount Denali

Trump said he is reinstating the name Mt. McKinley to an Alaskan peak during his inauguration speech.

The mountain was first christened Mount McKinely in 1896, before William McKinley became the 25th president. It was officially recognized by the government in 1917 and stood as the name until 2015.

In 2015, the Department of the Interior changed the name to Denali. That was the name traditionally used by the Koyukon people and is based on the Koyukan word for “tall.”
