On January 20, 2025, the Trump administration signed Memorandum 2025-01906 directing a freeze on pending federal regulatory actions.

The immediate effect is that dozens of pending rules across federal agencies are suspended pending review, affecting regulatory implementation timelines across healthcare, environmental, labor, and financial sectors.
