President Donald J. Trump declared a major disaster in Kentucky following severe storms and flooding.

This action makes federal funding available to individuals, households, and government entities for recovery efforts.

The declaration follows an earlier emergency declaration, highlighting a rapid response to the crisis and support from state and federal officials.

The President directed the Attorney General and other executive department heads to immediately suspend active security clearances held by Peter Koski and Covington & Burling LLP employees who assisted Special Counsel Jack Smith, pending a review of their involvement in the alleged weaponization of the judicial process.

The order also mandates a review of all government contracts with Covington & Burling LLP, with agencies instructed to align funding decisions with the President's priorities and the interests of the U.S. citizens.

The actions are justified by Executive Order 14147, and the memorandum explicitly states it does not create any legally enforceable rights.

This Presidential order directs the Secretary of Commerce to investigate the national security implications of US dependence on foreign copper imports.

The order cites concerns about vulnerabilities in the copper supply chain, particularly the dominance of a single foreign producer, and the critical role of copper in defense, infrastructure, and emerging technologies.

The investigation will assess the effects of copper imports on national security, considering factors like domestic production capacity, foreign competition effects, and the potential for foreign market manipulation.

The Secretary of Commerce is tasked with submitting a report including findings on national security threats and recommendations for mitigating those risks, including potential tariffs, export controls, and incentives for domestic production.

This Presidential Action addresses the lack of healthcare price transparency, aiming to empower patients with clear and accurate pricing information.

It directs the Secretaries of Treasury, Labor, and Health and Human Services to strengthen existing regulations and improve enforcement, ensuring hospitals and health plans disclose actual prices rather than estimates.

It leverages prior efforts to achieve greater transparency in healthcare costs, ultimately supporting a more competitive, efficient, and affordable healthcare system.
