    The Executive Office of the President issued Executive Order 14016, revoking Executive Order 13801, which was about expanding apprenticeships in America. The order instructs government officials to review and potentially rescind any related policies or positions created under the previous order, in line with the law. It clarifies that this change should not interfere with the legal authority of government agencies or impact budgetary processes. Additionally, it states that the order does not create any legal rights for parties against the U.S. government.

    Simple Explanation

    The President took away a rule about helping people learn new jobs through special job training programs, and he told others to look at any related rules and possibly stop them too. This change doesn't mean the government will do anything else or create any new rules right now.

    The Executive Order 13992, issued by the President, aims to grant more flexibility to government agencies in dealing with national priorities like the COVID-19 pandemic, economic recovery, racial justice, and climate change. It revokes several previous executive orders that were considered obstacles to effective federal regulation. The order directs the Office of Management and Budget and heads of agencies to rescind relevant policies or rules, or at least provide exemptions, under these revoked orders. It also clarifies that the order does not create any new legal rights for individuals against the government.

    Simple Explanation

    The President made a new rule to help different government groups work better on important things like the pandemic and climate change by removing some old rules that were getting in the way. But it's not clear exactly how things will change, and it might make things a little confusing at first.
