- Designating English as the official language of the United States.
- Demolishing DEI initiatives and restoring merit-based hiring practices.
- Throwing out Biden-era lawsuits against police and fire departments that were portrayed as racist for using written tests, physical exams, and credit checks in their hiring processes.
- Ending the weaponization of government against American citizens and tasking the Department of Justice to root out politically motivated lawfare that occurred under the Biden administration.

One of the significant focuses impacting small businesses, entrepreneurs, and independent professionals is the regulatory environment. President Trump took a step to review all regulations to ensure they do not violate Second Amendment rights. On January 31, he signed an executive order that mandates the elimination of 10 regulations for every new regulation introduced.
President Trump’s directive aims to boost the economy by removing outdated regulations. He emphasized the importance of eliminating old regulations to pave the way for new ones. This strategy echoes his successful initiatives from his first term in office.

This was a policy point Trump set in motion during his first term, and along with America’s prosperity, he is bringing it back.
The Executive Order is part of President Trump’s ongoing efforts to enhance the daily lives of the American people. By cutting down on unnecessary, cumbersome, and costly federal regulations, the administration seeks to create a more business-friendly environment for all.
Here’s the rub, and as a man who has created businesses of his own, Trump gets it. Burdensome regulation cripples everyone.
Overregulation stops American entrepreneurship, crushes small business, reduces consumer choice, discourages innovation, and infringes on the liberties of American citizens.
It also contributes to the high cost of living, including by driving up energy prices.
As RedState reported on Monday, the cessation of enforcement on the Corporate Transparency Act Beneficial Owner Information (CTA BOI) was a big first step in the right direction of freeing small businesses from this unjust law and reflects the new direction the administration plans to take.
As Trump said, “The nation founded by pioneers and risk takers now drowns under millions and millions of pages of regulations and debt.” Cutting regulation will work to return the nation back to those pioneers, risk-takers, and everyday citizens to unleash them in their pursuit of a new golden age for their businesses, their families, and their world.
Making Common Sense Great Again. We’re here for it.
