President Joe Biden has been in office for just under a hundred days and he’s been quite busy. He started with nine executive orders and signed three bills while announcing the American Rescue Plan. The American Rescue Plan is an “aggressive, two-step plan for rescue…by investing in America…” It is, perhaps, the president’s largest step in surmounting the COVID crisis in the country.

But that isn’t all President Biden has done. Here are ten of the big things that have been done under the new administration in under 100 days.

1. Paris Climate Agreement

On January 20, the president signed the United States back into the Paris Climate Agreement. It was among one of the first orders he signed as president, undoing the previous administration’s dismissal of the environmental agreement.

2. Executive Order on Advancing Racial Equality and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government

Another executive order signed on his first day as president, Biden signed this order declaring “that the Federal Government should pursue a comprehensive approach to advancing equity for all, including people of color and others who have been historically underserved, marginalized, and adversely affected by persistent poverty and inequality.” This order works to advance equity while utilizing the whole of the federal government.

3. Executive Order on Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation

Biden signed this order on day one as well, arguing that “it is the policy of my Administration to prevent and combat discrimination on the basis of gender identity or sexual orientation, and to fully enforce Title VII and other laws that prohibit discrimination…” All agency heads must be in compliance with the new executive order by the president’s hundredth day in office.

4. Preserving and Fortifying Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA)

This memorandum reinstates the Obama-Era DACA guidance which “deferred the removal of certain undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as children, have obeyed the law, and stayed in school or enlisted in the military.” DACA and other regulations allow those individuals who qualify to request “temporary relief from removal and to apply for temporary work permits.”

5. Executive order on Organizing and Mobilizing the United States Government to Provide a Unified and Effective Response to Combat COVID-19 and to Provide United States Leadership on Global Health and Security

The purpose of this executive order is to “aggressively…combat coronavirus disease 2019.” Biden’s administration created the position of “Coordinator of COVID-19 Response and Counselor to the President.” This position will ensure the administration is prepared to combat the current COVID pandemic while preparing “for future biological and pandemic threats.”

6. Signed Memorandum on Tribal Consultation and Strengthening Nation-to-Nation Relationships

First Nation Tribes and organizations are recognized as “sovereign governments under the Constitution of the United States…” and the Biden administration has prioritized federal commitment to “fulfilling Federal trust and treaty responsibilities to Tribal nations, and [establishing] regular, meaningful, and robust consultation with Tribal Nations cornerstones of Federal Indian policy.”

7. Signed Memorandum Condemning and Combating Racism, Xenophobia, and Intolerance Against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the United States

The administrations hopes to advance “inclusion and belonging for people of all races, national origins, and ethnicities,” indicating that it is critical to guaranteeing the “safety and security of the American people. Signed on 26 Jan, the memorandum foreshadows some of the unrest within Asian American communities which have been popularized with the #StopAsianHate movement.

8. Remarks on Signing Executive Order Reversing the 2018 Transgender Military Ban

The president reinstated, by signing this executive order, a position held by previous presidents allowing and enabling any and all qualified Americans to serve the country in uniform if they so choose. Biden stated that the order is “essentially restoring the situation as it existed before, with transgender personnel, if qualified in every other way, can serve their government in the United Sates military.”

9. Convened with “The Quad” to Express Quadrilateral Cooperation

Cooperation between Australia, India, Japan and the United States has been dubbed The Quad because of the unique perspectives of the countries and the unified vision “for the free and open Indo-Pacific.” The Quad first joined forces after the tsunami of 2004 and now come together against COVID-19, climate change and security challenges in the region. The “first-ever leader-level summit of the quad” met on March 12, 2021.

10. Retraction of United States Withdrawal from the World Health Organization

President Biden sent a letter to His Excellency António Guterres notifying him that the United States wished to retract a letter sent during the previous administration. That letter, dated July 6, 2020, indicated that the United States would no longer be a member of the World Health Organization effective one year from the date of the letter. The United States, President Biden assured, “intends to remain a member” of that organization.

These ten moves are not the only thing the new administration has done. Though the president has been quiet on social media and in the media, he has been faithfully surging forward with the goals and plans laid out during his campaign. For a full list, visit wh.gov.
