Imposing Sanctions on Those Responsible for Repression in Cuba and for Threats to United States National Security and Foreign Policy
This Presidential Action, issued under the authority granted by the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and the National Emergencies Act (NEA), builds upon the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14380 concerning the policies and actions of the Government of Cuba.
The order directs the Secretary of State and Secretary of the Treasury to block the property and interests in property of foreign persons determined to be involved in operating within key destabilizing sectors of the Cuban economy, engaging in serious human rights abuses, or corruption.
Furthermore, it suspends the entry of such designated aliens into the United States and authorizes sanctions, including blocking U.S.-held assets, against foreign financial institutions that facilitate transactions for blocked persons.
Nominations Sent to the Senate
This document, categorized as a Presidential Action, formally lists multiple nominations sent by the President to the Senate for confirmation, primarily identifying candidates for U.S. District Judge positions in various federal districts (Ohio and Texas) and Associate Judge positions for the Superior Court of the District of Columbia.
Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections
This Presidential Action mandates significant steps to ensure that only eligible U.S. citizens participate in Federal elections, asserting the President's duty to enforce election laws and maintain public confidence.
The order directs the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration to compile and transmit State Citizenship Lists—containing verified citizens eligible to vote—to state election officials.
Furthermore, it mandates the Postmaster General to initiate rulemaking within the USPS to require unique, trackable identifiers (like barcodes) on outbound official election mail envelopes for absentee or mail-in ballots, and it directs the Attorney General to prioritize investigations into violations related to issuing ballots to non-citizens.
The action also outlines procedures for data sharing, enforcement, and compliance deadlines.
Preserving America’s Game
This Presidential Action establishes a policy preventing any college football game, specifically CFP or other postseason contests, from being broadcast in a manner that directly conflicts with the traditionally scheduled Army-Navy Game on the second Saturday in December.
The order directs the Secretary of Commerce and the Chairman of the FCC to coordinate with the CFP Committee, the NCAA, and media partners to establish an exclusive broadcast window for "America's Game." Furthermore, the FCC Chairman is required to review whether public interest obligations of broadcast licensees mandate keeping the Army-Navy Game as a national service event.
Ensuring Truthful Advertising of Products Claiming to be Made in America
This Presidential Action establishes a policy to protect consumers and domestic manufacturers by requiring enforcement against fraudulent or misleading "Made in America" advertising claims, especially in the digital marketplace.
The order instructs the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to prioritize enforcement actions and consider regulations holding online marketplaces accountable for verifying origin claims.
Additionally, it directs agencies overseeing government contracts to review and verify American-origin claims for procured products, referring potential violators of the Buy American Act to the Department of Justice for action under the False Claims Act.
The Order concludes with standard general provisions detailing implementation subject to law and appropriations.
Nomination and Withdrawals Sent to the Senate
This presidential action document formally notifies the Senate about the transmission of one new nomination—Sarah B. Rogers for Chief Executive Officer of the United States Agency for Global Media—and simultaneously announces the withdrawal of two previously submitted nominations: William Hewes III for Commissioner of the Consumer Product Safety Commission and Jeremy Carl for Assistant Secretary of State (International Organizations).
Combating Cybercrime, Fraud, and Predatory Schemes Against American Citizens
This Presidential Action establishes a firm policy to protect Americans from cybercrime, fraud, and predatory schemes often orchestrated by Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs), sometimes with state sponsorship.
The order directs several key agencies to review existing frameworks and develop an action plan within 120 days to disrupt and dismantle these TCOs, necessitating the creation of an operational cell within the National Coordination Center (NCC).
Furthermore, it mandates recommendations for a Victim Restoration Program using seized funds and requires the Secretary of State to engage diplomatically to compel foreign nations to curb such criminal activity or face U.S. consequences.
Ratepayer Protection Pledge Proclamation
This Presidential Proclamation formally recognizes the Ratepayer Protection Pledge, dated March 4, 2026, which secures commitments from seven leading technology companies (hyperscalers and AI firms) to finance the full cost of new electricity generation resources and power delivery infrastructure required for their expanding data centers.
The core purpose of the action is to safeguard American households from increased electricity costs resulting from the escalating energy demands of data centers and artificial intelligence development, while simultaneously bolstering U.S. economic and technological leadership by ensuring this infrastructure growth occurs domestically.
