Securing the United States Bulk-Power System
This executive order declares a national emergency over foreign adversary threats to the U.S. bulk-power system, prohibiting the acquisition, importation, transfer, or installation of foreign-supplied electric equipment deemed to pose national security risks.

Strengthening National Resilience Through Responsible Use of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing Services
This executive order directs federal agencies to develop profiles and plans to protect critical infrastructure from disruptions to Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) services like GPS. It mandates development of voluntary standards for responsible PNT use, vulnerability testing, pilot programs, and research into backup PNT technologies independent of satellite systems.
Maximizing Use of American-Made Goods, Products, and Materials
