Trump’s First 100 Days Marked by Record Number of Executive Orders

In the first 100 days of his second term, President Donald Trump has issued more executive orders in the first 100 days — 35 of them focusing on energy, environmental and infrastructure efforts and law firms — than any other president in history, creating a flurry of governmental actions, broad economic implications and legal challenges, according to a panel of legal experts hosted by The Texas Lawbook.

Trump’s 140 executive orders surpassed the previous record of 99 set in 1933 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt to address the Great Depression.
