There is none. Its all been EOs I believe. -.-

the executive (and his administration) doesn't pass legislation

Social Security gun ban repeal?

Surprisingly, Congress (the branch of government which enacts laws) has actually manged to pass several bills which reverse regulations adopted during the waning days of the administration of the former Dear Leader.
The Democrat propaganda machine has mostly ignored those actions.

You know what I mean.

Here ya go...

10 enacted bills to date. All pretty much fluffy mundane horse shit.

Clicked to post this.

Congress has eliminated a bunch of end of term EOs that the Kenyan enacted.  Trump has signed every one.  

Like the EPA regulates every puddle one.

Not news worthy but important.

This one actually affects me as I own a ranch with stock ponds.

great thread, Op. subscribing- hope you'll add and update as time goes on.

Just now:

BREAKING: President Donald Trump signs executive order rolling back Obama's efforts to combat climate change.

The most important part of the Congressional Review laws are they can't be reversed by a future executive order.  They would have to go through Congress.

Bigger changes are needed.  We need to have any regulation passed into law by Congress.  Make it hard.

getting rid of obummer's lead ammo on federal land ban

I blame the do nothing Rep party!!


They have everything they need to pass anything they want and 
are sitting on their asses just cause they cannot have an outsider
leading the way.

Not so patiently waiting for his signature on the HPA. 

You and me both.

We'll be waiting awhile....like forever.

At this rate....

Not a fucking thing listed to help the regular joe.

I don't have any confidence in this Congress. Zip, Zero, Zilch, Nada.

so, basically nothing in the first 100 days...

Bitch at Paul Rino and Mitch McTurtle.

C'mon they passed the TALENT Act of 2017
