Commencing the Reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy

AI Summary: This is a policy document - specifically an Executive Order. This regulation orders a significant reduction in the federal bureaucracy by eliminating or minimizing the functions of several governmental entities and advisory committees. The order specifically targets the Presidio Trust, Inter-American Foundation, United States African Development Foundation, and United States Institute of Peace, directing them to reduce their non-statutory functions and personnel to the legal minimum. The order also terminates specific federal advisory committees within various agencies, such as the Advisory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid and the Secretary's Advisory Committee on Long COVID. Additionally, the order directs the termination of the Presidential Management Fellows Program and revokes previous related executive orders. The heads of national security, economic policy, and domestic policy are instructed to identify additional unnecessary governmental entities and advisory committees for potential termination within 30 days. The order emphasizes that its implementation must be consistent with existing laws and available appropriations, and does not create enforceable legal rights for any party.
