This memorandum establishes the China Censorship Monitor and Action Group, an interagency task force led by the National Security Advisor and National Economic Council Director to monitor and counter PRC censorship or intimidation of U.S. persons exercising free speech. The task force must produce an integrated federal strategy and annual reports on these efforts, with membership spanning 12+ agencies including State, Treasury, Defense, Justice, Commerce, DHS, and intelligence agencies.
Establishment of the Countering Economic Coercion Task Force
This memorandum establishes an interagency Countering Economic Coercion Task Force within the Executive Office of the President, co-chaired by the National Security Advisor and National Economic Council Director, to coordinate U.S. strategy against economic coercion by countries of concern, particularly the People's Republic of China.

Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012
This presidential determination, consistent with prior determinations, finds that global petroleum supplies from non-Iranian sources are sufficient to allow foreign financial institutions to significantly reduce purchases of Iranian oil without disrupting markets. This maintains the legal foundation for U.S. sanctions on Iranian petroleum exports under the 2012 NDAA.
Delegation of Authority To Designate an Existing Official To Serve Within the Executive Branch as the Coordinator for Detained ISIS Members and Relevant Displaced Populations in Syria
This memorandum delegates presidential authority to the Secretary of State to designate an existing executive branch official as Coordinator for Detained ISIS Members and Relevant Displaced Populations in Syria. The Coordinator will carry out responsibilities under NDAA FY2020 section 1224 as amended by NDAA FY2024 section 1262, with required consultation across national security agencies and notice to the President through the National Security Advisor upon designation.
Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012
This determination continues a long-standing policy by finding that global petroleum supplies from non-Iranian sources are sufficient to allow foreign financial institutions to significantly reduce purchases of Iranian oil without harming oil markets. This sustains the sanctions framework under Section 1245 of the FY2012 NDAA, which conditions access to the U.S. financial system on countries significantly reducing Iranian oil imports.
Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012
This presidential determination, consistent with prior determinations, finds that global petroleum supplies from non-Iranian sources are sufficient to allow significant reductions in Iranian oil purchases through foreign financial institutions. It continues the policy foundation for maintaining sanctions pressure on Iranian petroleum exports under the 2012 NDAA.
Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012
This presidential determination, consistent with prior determinations, finds that global petroleum supplies from non-Iranian sources are sufficient to allow foreign financial institutions to significantly reduce purchases of Iranian oil. It maintains the legal foundation for U.S. sanctions pressure on Iran's oil sector by keeping the 'significant reduction exception' available to countries that reduce Iranian oil imports.
Promoting the Arts, the Humanities, and Museum and Library Services
This executive order establishes the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities within the Institute of Museum and Library Services to advise on cultural policy, and directs 25 federal agencies and White House offices to coordinate with the NEA, NEH, and IMLS on arts and humanities initiatives. The Committee is advisory, composed of federal agency heads and up to 25 presidential appointees, and terminates after two years unless extended.
Presidential Determination Pursuant to Section 1245(d)(4)(B) and (C) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012
This determination continues a long-standing presidential finding required by the 2012 NDAA that there is sufficient global petroleum supply from non-Iranian sources to allow foreign countries to significantly reduce Iranian oil purchases. It maintains the legal foundation for U.S. sanctions on foreign financial institutions that facilitate Iranian petroleum transactions, preserving the maximum pressure sanctions architecture without altering policy.
White House Initiative on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity for Black Americans
This executive order establishes a White House Initiative within the Department of Education to advance educational equity and economic opportunity for Black Americans through interagency coordination, evidence-based policy, and a Presidential Advisory Commission. It revokes a 2012 Obama-era initiative on the same topic, expanding the scope to explicitly include economic opportunity and workforce development alongside K-12 and higher education.
Continuation of the Exercise of Certain Authorities Under the Trading With the Enemy Act
President Biden extended for one year the exercise of authorities under the Trading With the Enemy Act regarding Cuba, continuing the embargo-related powers that were set to expire on September 14, 2021. The determination extends these authorities through September 14, 2022, as implemented by the Cuban Assets Control Regulations.
