To repeal certain executive orders.
Sponsored By: Representative Castor, Kathy [D-FL-14]
Introduced
Summary
Repeal of four January 20, 2025 energy and environment executive orders and a ban on federal funding to carry them out. This bill would strip four specific executive orders of force and prohibit any Federal funds from being used to implement, administer, enforce, or carry out those orders, while preserving the President's statutory authority.
Show full summary
- Federal agencies would be barred from spending federal funds to implement any of the four listed executive orders, removing funding support for those directives.
- Offshore wind developers and leasing stakeholders would be affected because the bill targets the EO that temporarily withdrew all areas on the Outer Continental Shelf from offshore wind leasing and called for a review of leasing and permitting practices.
- Energy producers and emergency programs would see the EOs titled "Unleashing American Energy" and "Declaring a National Energy Emergency" nullified, removing those executive-level directives and any funding tied to carrying them out.
- International negotiators and environmental policy officials would lose the executive guidance from the EO "Putting America First in International Environmental Agreements," as that order would have no force or effect.

Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 2 mixed.
Repeal four 2025 energy orders
If enacted, this bill would repeal four executive orders issued January 20, 2025. It would bar any federal funds from being used to carry them out. The change would take effect on the date of enactment. This could shift federal leasing, permitting, and approvals for energy and offshore wind projects. Some energy businesses could benefit, while others, like offshore wind developers, could face setbacks.
Does not limit presidential authority
If enacted, the bill would say it does not limit the President’s authority. Agencies and courts would read the law with that in mind. It would not directly change benefits, taxes, or payments for most people.
