Executive Order 14002 of January 22, 2021

In addition, many individuals, families, and small businesses have had difficulties navigating relief programs with varying eligibility requirements, and some are not receiving the intended assistance. The economic crisis resulting from the pandemic must be met by the full resources of the Federal Government.

b Agencies should take the actions identified in subsection a of this section, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, and in doing so should prioritize actions that provide the greatest relief to individuals, families, and small businesses; and to State, local, Tribal, and territorial governments.
c Independent agencies, as enumerated in 44 U.S.C. 35025, are strongly encouraged to comply with this section.
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
