President Biden Begins to Roll Out Plan for First 100 Days in Office

U.S. President Joe Biden prepares to sign a series of executive orders at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office just hours after his inauguration today in Washington, D.C.

The new president signed 17 executive actions focused primarily on combating COVID-19 and its economic fallout, immigration and the environment — with additional moves planned to promote abortion and transgender rights.
