Joe Biden signed 60 executive actions in his first 100 days as president, 24 of which were direct reversals of Trump&rsquo;s policies from his first term.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Trump appears poised to rival the pace of executive actions his predecessor took in his own first 100 days, even if it means inviting a fight in federal courts.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a list of the top executive orders being challenged.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limiting birthright citizenship becomes the steepest battle thus far<\/h2>\n<p>A federal judge in Seattle on Thursday became the second in the nation to issue a preliminary injunction against Trump&rsquo;s efforts to limit birthright citizenship.&nbsp;Later in the evening, the Trump administration filed an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/storage.courtlistener.com\/recap\/gov.uscourts.wawd.343943\/gov.uscourts.wawd.343943.116.0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">appeal directly<\/a>&nbsp;to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, teeing up the first appeals court review over an executive order since Trump took office.<\/p>\n<p>On Jan. 20, Trump signed an executive order known as &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/presidential-actions\/2025\/01\/protecting-the-meaning-and-value-of-american-citizenship\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship<\/a>,&rdquo; aiming to curtail birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>A coalition of 22 states filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, arguing that the order violates the 14th Amendment. U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour, a Reagan appointee, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?sa=t&amp;source=web&amp;rct=j&amp;opi=89978449&amp;url=https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3298682\/federal-judge-temporarily-halts-trump-birthright-citizenship-order-nationwide\/&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjrlNSeqK-LAxVVFlkFHb2UKX4QFnoECBUQAQ&amp;usg=AOvVaw3HHeDeEgfACdOjhBnKcEkj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">issued<\/a> a temporary restraining order on Jan. 23 blocking the executive order&rsquo;s implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Coughenor held a hearing on Thursday that elevated his restraining order into a preliminary injunction at the request of plaintiffs. The judge notably used the hearing to elevate his concerns that Trump is &ldquo;ignoring&rdquo; the law and seeking to enact the policy without regard to federal court&rsquo;s long-standing precedent surrounding 14th Amendment rights.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It has become ever more apparent that, to our president, the rule of law is but an impediment to his policy goals. The rule of law is, according to him, something to navigate around or simply ignore, whether that be for political or personal gain,&rdquo; Coughenour said as he announced his ruling.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, immigrant rights groups and five pregnant women also filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.

Three major unions representing&nbsp;800,000 federal employees&nbsp;sued to block the program, arguing it&nbsp;violates federal law and pressures workers into resigning under the threat of future layoffs.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citizensforethics.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/PEER-Complaint.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">lawsuit<\/a>, filed by Democracy Forward, argues that the offer is unlawful, arbitrarily short, and a pretext for purging workers on ideological grounds.
