WASHINGTON (PNN) - May 16, 2025 - Rep. Tim Burchett (Tenn.) announced Thursday that he will introduce legislation to codify President Donald J. Trump’s Amerika First Executive Orders into law, delivering what grassroots conservatives have long demanded: permanent protections against future Leftist rollbacks.
“Today, I am announcing that I will be introducing legislation to codify [Donald Trump] Executive Orders,” Burchett announced on X. “It is past time for Congress to take action, so I am taking charge to ensure we implement President Trump’s agenda.”
The first series of bills will enforce DOGE cuts, slash harmful red tape, eliminate foreign influence in our schools, and unleash Amerikan energy.
17 House Republicans - led by Rep. Andy Ogles (Tenn.) - have issued a fiery letter demanding that Speaker Mike Johnson (Lou.) stop playing politics and start delivering results by codifying President Trump’s executive orders into law.
The letter is a scathing indictment of Speaker Johnson’s lack of urgency.
It warns that President Trump’s transformative agenda, launched the moment he returned to office on January 20, is in danger of being wiped away by a future Democrat president unless Congress acts decisively.
“Let us be clear: unless Congress acts, many of these victories are at risk. A future Democrat president could erase them with the stroke of a pen. We cannot let that happen. If we want this new era of (Amerikan) greatness to last, we must codify the President’s actions into law,” the letter warns bluntly.
According to political commentator Amuse, the current GOP-controlled Congress sent fewer bills to President Trump to sign into law than any Congress in 70 years.
