    The Executive Order establishes the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships to coordinate policies and efforts involving community-serving organizations, both faith-based and secular. This office, supported by the Domestic Policy Council and Office of Public Engagement, aims to improve the effectiveness of these organizations in delivering services alongside federal, state, and local governments, while respecting constitutional commitments related to religion. The order also updates and amends previous executive orders to reflect this new initiative and revokes Executive Order 13831, which dealt with a similar subject.

    The memorandum from January 8, 2021, outlines the order of succession for the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) position at the United States International Development Finance Corporation (DFC). If the CEO becomes unable to fulfill their duties, the Deputy CEO, Chief Operating Officer, and other specified officials will assume the role, but only if they are not in an acting capacity and are permitted by law. The President retains the right to override this order if necessary. Additionally, the memorandum ensures that it doesn't grant any legal rights to challenge its decisions.

    Simple Explanation

    If the boss at a special government company called the DFC can't do their job, there's a plan for who takes over, like a list of backup leaders. But the President can still choose someone different if they want.

    The proclamation, issued by President Donald Trump on December 31, 2020, extends previous suspensions on the entry of certain immigrants and nonimmigrants into the United States. These measures are meant to protect the U.S. labor market during the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. The extensions affect Proclamation 10014 regarding immigrant visas and Proclamation 10052 concerning certain nonimmigrant visas, and both will now expire on March 31, 2021, with possibilities for further continuation. The proclamation includes severability and general provisions to maintain its enforceability and compatibility with existing laws.

    Simple Explanation

    President Trump decided to keep a rule going that makes it hard for certain people from other countries to come to the U.S. for work, so people already here can have more job opportunities as things get better after the virus problems.

    In this executive order, the President mandates that the counting of people for the decennial census for House of Representatives apportionment must include everyone living in each state, regardless of immigration status. This order reverses previous policies that aimed to exclude undocumented immigrants from the count. The order emphasizes that accurate and complete data must be used for the census and requires the Secretary of Commerce to ensure that the population count fully reflects each state's inhabitants. Additionally, it revokes earlier directives concerning the collection of citizenship information for the census.

    Simple Explanation

    In this document, the President says that when counting how many people live in each state to decide how many seats each state gets in the House of Representatives, everyone should be counted, including those who moved here from other countries without permission. This reverses older rules that wanted to leave these people out.
