Integrating Financial Technology Innovation into Regulatory Frameworks

President Donald J. Trump’s order directs federal financial regulators to review their rules, guidance, supervision, and application processes to identify barriers that make it harder for fintech companies to compete, partner with regulated financial institutions, or obtain federal approvals. It sets deadlines for those agencies to update or streamline their approaches so they better support innovation while still considering safety, consumer protection, and market integrity. The order also asks the Federal Reserve to examine whether non-bank and uninsured financial firms, including some involved in digital assets, can legally get direct access to Federal Reserve payment accounts and services, and to recommend options or changes where needed. It was issued to modernize the regulatory framework, reduce unnecessary obstacles, and better integrate new financial technologies into the traditional financial system.

Urgent National Action to Save College Sports

President Donald J. Trump’s order directs federal agencies to begin setting up a national framework to stabilize college sports, with key provisions taking effect on August 1, 2026. It tells agencies that fund or contract with colleges to consider whether schools are violating major college athletics rules on eligibility, transfers, revenue-sharing, and improper payments when evaluating those schools’ standing for federal grants and contracts. The order also pushes the national governing body for college sports to strengthen rules on issues such as five-year eligibility limits, transfer rules, medical care for athletes, protection of women’s and Olympic sports, limits on fraudulent NIL pay schemes, and a national registry for student-athlete agents. It further directs the Justice Department to challenge certain state laws that conflict with national college sports rules and says the action was issued because the White House views the current system as financially unstable, legally chaotic, and threatening to the structure of college athletics and universities’ broader responsibilities.

Preserving America's Game

President Donald Trump’s executive order declares that the Army-Navy Game should have an exclusive national broadcast window, free from conflicts with the College Football Playoff or other postseason college football games. It directs the Secretary of Commerce and the Chairman of the FCC to work with the CFP, the NCAA, broadcasters, and other relevant groups to try to reserve that window so no other college football game airs at the same time. The order also tells the FCC Chairman to consider whether broadcasters’ public-interest obligations support treating the Army-Navy Game as a national service event. Trump says the order was issued to preserve the traditional spotlight on the Army-Navy Game and prevent other college football scheduling from distracting from what the order calls a morale-building event for the Military Service Academies.
