Revocation of Executive Order 14036 on Competition
Impact Score: 2.6
Timeline: Effective upon issuance, no specific deadline provided
Summary: Executive Order 14036, aimed at promoting competition in the American economy, was revoked on August 13, 2025. The revocation maintains existing agency powers and does not create enforceable rights. It may reduce regulatory oversight, impacting market dynamics and research funding, especially at Vanderbilt University. Departments such as law, economics, and business may need to adjust curricula and research focus. The Department of Justice will cover publication costs, with Office of Management and Budget functions unaffected.
Key Actions: Vanderbilt’s Office of Federal Relations should monitor policy changes; Law School to research legal impacts; Management School to adapt curricula; Project on Unity & American Democracy to analyze economic policy shifts; Economics Department to study market effects; and seek private partnerships benefiting from deregulation.
