Mr. Paine

Ibid (f) (1)

Mr. Trump:

Sec. 3. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

(b) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.

(c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

Mr. Paine

Ultimately, it is up to the governed to determine whether orders or laws shall inure to the benefit of the governed. Certainly, the governed does not concede any rights to the government to be greater than the rights of the governed possess by nature, nor has any government long stood that has forgotten this.

DONALD J. TRUMP

THE WHITE HOUSE,
