[indiscernible] [laughter] thank you very much. I just spoke with Boris Johnson. We had a good talk about a number of subjects. We will talk a little bit about that later, but we had an extended conversation and simply good ideas, i think. I want to see if we can do a couple things. They will be doing certain things for us. Thankt to also think the Minneapolis Police department, they have been so incredible with what they have done. Tomorrow, we have a tremendous amount of people planned to go. The requests have been incredible. So i think it is a great state and we will have a lot of fun tomorrow night, a lot of you will be with us. Friday night, we will be going to louisiana. There will be a big election on saturday to see whether or not there is a runoff. Most likely. I think we will do very well. Republicans are doing very well despite the witchhunt they have on republicans. Thank everybody for coming to the white house on this important occasion. In a few moments, i will signed executive orders to expand our regulatory Reduction Campaign that is helping to fuel our economic boom. The stock market is up close to 250 points today and this is despite trade deals that are getting done one by one. We are getting a deal with south korea, a really big one. And we did when yesterday with japan. That will go into effect now. Tremendous for our farmers. As you know, we have china coming. They will be coming tomorrow. We have the vice premier of china coming. So we have a lot of big things happening. We have tremendous deals under negotiation. So despite all that, we have a great economy integrate market. Our Housing Market is on fire. And things are really doing well. You look at asia, they are not doing well. China is having a hard time. And i want to make a deal badly. So we have a lot of things that are exciting. And to be in the midst of negotiating some of the worst trade deals ever made, and to be breaking them up and changing them for the good of the american taxpayer and for our country, and to still be doing so well we had over 100 recordbreaking stock markets 121 or something, i will get you the exact number, but many days we broke the record. And we continue to do well. When the trade deals are done and certain other things are done, it will be at a level that is incredible. That was the cutest noise. [laughter] pres. Trump i am used to hearing them. [laughter] pres. Trump there is nothing cute about them. [laughter] pres. Trump so beautiful. Do not feel bad. He can do whatever he wants. That is a beautiful sound. Today we take action to protect americans from bureaucracy and to stop regulators from opposing secret rules and hidden penalties on the american people. We are delighted to be joined on this occasion by acting director ross about, who has done a fantastic job, the Deputy AttorneyJeffrey Rosen jeff . Are you listening . And congressman mark meadows. Mark, fantastic that you are here. Louisianas solicitor general, i will be there, liz . Where is she . I will see one friday. I do not know if you will be there, but we will have a big crowd. Thank you very much. And several other officials, we want to thank you for being here. For decades, they have been issuing pages of guidance imposed byregulation unaccountable bureaucrats in the form of commentary on how the rules should be interpreted. All too often, the guidance documents are a backdoor for regulators to effectively change the laws and expand their scope and reach. Guidance has frequently been used to subject u. S. Citizens and businesses to arbitrary and sometimes abusive Enforcement Actions ha it sounds like they are talking about me. [laughter] pres. Trump i think they are talking about me. I might have a conflict in signing this. Because of these materials, and the fact that these materials are too often hidden, Many Americans learn of the rules only when the federal agents come knocking on their door. This Regulatory Overreach greatly undermines our constitutional system of government, unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats must not be able to operate outside of the democratic system of government. Wow. Imposing their own private agenda on our citizens. A permanent federal be accuracy cannot be a Fourth Branch of government, unanswerable to american voters. In america, the people must always rain. Reign. With this is andy johnson from wyoming, a great place, his family is one of many that suffered from the absurd read definitions and interpretations of federal bureaucrats. Andy is here to say some words. I would like to hear that, because i think you might be speaking about me or to me. Where is he . Come appear with that beautiful baby. Up here with that bit of a baby. Andy thank you for having me and my wife, morgan, and my son. I work as a welder in wyoming and five years ago, when i applied for a stock bond permit for my private property, i had no idea that the epa would come knocking on my door and threaten me and my family civilly, criminally and with a fine of 37,500 per day. The fines were up to 16 million the Legal Foundation stepped in and sued the epa on my behalf and my family. At that point, the epa changed their attitude and we were able to come to an agreement. We won our case, but unlike a lot of other middleclass americans, that is not the case. They we could have never fought. The litigation was way too expensive. So i want to thank the president today for signing this executive order, which will hold the epa and other Government Agencies more responsible for their actions. Thank you. [applause] so they had you up to 16 million . That is peanuts for you, right . That is great. Glad it worked out. And it is working out even better. We are also joined by richard, who was prevented from expanding his business because of the obscure Regulatory Guidance on rule from the 1980s, an old rule. Richard, talk about it. Please. Richard thank you. Mr. President , i would like to thank you for the invitation to speak and bring attention to the reform to the rulemaking process. I operate familyowned business in fairbanks, alaska. Oururchased some land for business about 20 years ago, so we could move operations out of town to the new facility. And expand our facilities. We spent the better part of 10 years and over 300,000 dollars fighting with the regulatory agencies over the arbitrary nature of the army corps of engineers wetlands designation and other use of the alaska supplement versus the 1987 congressionally mandated wetlands manual. Doeseffort is also it not include the time and energy put forth by the pacific Legal Foundation on our behalf. I would like to thank them as well. The last straw for us was when we lost our appeal in the ninth circuit court, when they held that the agencies can make the regulations they want and require without congressional approval and oversight. Im hopeful that the changes made today with this executive order, other landowners it will not be negatively impacted as we have been. Thank you again for this opportunity. Pres. Trump that is great. [applause] richard. Mp thank you, you mentioned the ninth circuit. We have a lot of good new judges in the ninth circuit and we will re close to 182 new judges ove short amount of time. So we are in record territory by a lot. So we will have 182 new federal judges, not including two Supreme Court judges. I guess we are already at the 156 number, jeff and mark, about 156 judges now who are signed and sitting and doing a great job. We will be at 182 before we normalize. Meaning retirement and various other reasons that they leave. And we could average about 40 or so a year from that process, so we will have probably a very big Record Number of judges, federal judges come in this administration. And i want to thank president obama for leaving us 138 empty slots. Because that is a first. I said, how many . They said, you have 138. I said, you have to be getting. I want to thank you, president obama. Richard, thank you for your nice words. When americans and other businesses are suited by Government Agencies, they are sometimes not given an explanation as to what they did wrong or how they can fix it. With us is kevin, whose company was forced out of business through the terrible practice of a certain way of government handling of things. Not fair, not right. Kevin, come up and discuss it. Thank you. My name is kevin, i am a thirdgeneration cattle ranger at the National Seashore in california. About several years ago, we also where the owners of the drakes bay oyster farm, a sustainable Family Business where we produced nearly half of all the oysters in the state of california. The National ParkService Launched a National Environmental policy act process of dollarsillions and lasted over 80 years. Eight years. And they forced farm out of business. Our oyster from out of business. If that wasnt enough, today, the rest of agriculture, which includes another 24 ranching family farm businesses within the National Seashore are facing the exact same process. Fear is that process could ultimately be facing, those families may be facing with the oyster farm faced. We are thinking thanking you for calling this meeting together to have this discussion, and we urge you to continue your work in following these policies and making sure that these federal policies are managed in away that family farmers and rangers like us can actually benefit and survive these these procedures. And so they are not just for federal agencies who have predecided what they want before the process has begun, and for professional litigants that abuse the process. Thank you. Pres. Trump thank you. [applause] pres. Trump is the business gone . It is gone, 20 million oysters destroyed. Pres. Trump wow, they force you out of business . Yes. Pres. Trump i have to say, kevin. I know what you have been through. I have heard about it. It is very sad, but we want to thank you for being here. No american should ever face such persecution from their own government, except perhaps your president. Do not feel bad come kevin. They treated you better than they treat me. I do believe that is true. I do believe that is true, meadows. Today, i am taking action to stop it. My First Executive order will require agencies to publish guidance documents online, so that Small Businesses and everyday citizens can easily find them. Agencies will have to Seek Public Input on the most important guidance and the whole process will be closely overseen by the white house. We will have somebody in the white house looking at it, kevin, so this does not happen to other people. You are very brave to be here. I really mean it. Americans will no longer be subject to the rules of hidden games that are played on the public. The second order i will sign will protect american citizens from secret interpretations of regulations, unexpected penalties and violations of their rights. From now on, agencies will be required to inform individuals about any case against them and respond to their arguments. Duty tobe the agencys fully educate Small Businesses about new regulatory changes. Todays action is the latest step in my administrations fight to curtail job killing, soul crushing regulations. I want to thank jeff for a great job. The Justice Department did a fantastic job and i want to thank you. We ended the war in american energy. We are canceling restrictions that devastated american autoworkers. We are stopping regulations that micromanage our great farmers. We are bringing Major Companies back to our country, they want to be here with a hot economy. We are the place they want to be. We are reversing the last administrations ridiculous attack on incandescent lightbulbs. Arere also working cars very expensive, far too expensive, and we will bring the price of cars down about 3500. At the same time, make the car a lot more affordable and a lot safer. So we will have affordability, safety, and we will also get some of the old cars off the roads, because people will have an incentive to purchase a new car that is a lot less of a problem from an environmental standpoint. It is an amazing thing. We are going against california. They make their cars so light, it is papiermache. When you get in an accident, it is very dangerous. So we are coming up with a new standard and i think it will be something special. It has gotten tremendous receptivity. Same thing with the inconsistent lights. Aside from the fact you look better, who cares about looks, but you look better with incandescent lights. They were not allowed. And you have the privilege of buying now a much more expensive lightbulb under the past rules. A much more extensive lightbulb that does not have a goodlooking night, but importantly, when the bulb is no good, it is literally considered a Hazardous Waste site, because it is all the gases. If it breaks, you are supposed to bring it to a certain location. Who does that . Nobody does. It is very dangerous. So we have we are allowing people to choose, they can purchase less expensive lightbulbs. It will look better. Or they can spend more money on what they were doing and that is fine too. They may like it. It might last longer, that is ok. But it is still a hazardous situation when you have to dispose of these things, whereas in the old system you do not have that, so we are bringing contestant bulbs and contestant lightbulbs. We like to have alternatives. At the start of my presidency i imposed a rule on regulations requiring that for every new regulation, two old regulations must be eliminated. In the first two years of the obama, Sleepy Joe Biden administration, the cost of Regulatory Compliance went up by 245 billion. Can you believe that . In our administration, we have taken it down by more than that. It down by more than that. 245 billion up, we took it down by much more than that. According to economic counsel of advisors, wrigley torrey reductions will save the average American Household over. 3000 over 3000 every single year, thanks to tax cuts and perm american trade policies. So our economy is stronger than it has ever been. That is despite all the negotiations we are doing to really make us into something that we have never seen before, meaning fair trade deals. We have created 6. 4 million new jobs. Unemployment reached its lowest rate last month in over 50 years. The africanamerican, hispanic american on opponent have hit historic lows. We have more people working in the u. S. Today than at any time in the history of our country. Wages are rising very fast. Twice as fast for low income workers. The biggest beneficiary is the low income worker, the wages are rising at a rate we have not seen in many decades. When i first started caaigning, many of you were with me and i used to talk about workers that would make more. Years ago, 21 years ago, then they made a few years ago. Because now it has gone up a lot. But a few years ago. And they had two or three jobs, yet they did better 21 years before. With todays executive order, we continue this incredible economic success. And we defend american liberties for generations to come. I want to invite the acting to see if youb to words about a few words about the exciting news. When he is finished we will sign the executive orders. Thank you very much. Thank you. It is the results of your leadership that we are making a major step forward in the effort to drain the swamp and to get our arms around the ministry of state. We cannot do that until we know all of the dark regulatory stealth regulation that is out there, that is one reason why we are asking all agencies to be putting on their website, on a searchable website, all these regulations, so we can understand what it is and anything not but there is rescinded. Secondly, we want to make sure that families and Small Businesses are no longer bullied by the federal government. We have all had to deal with the Motor Department down the street, thing about dealing with the federal government, that is a different situation and people who have flown in on their own dime to be part of this television can attest to that. We want to make sure that there are no stories ever again of people being bullied by their federal government. We are thrilled you took this on and we are looking forward to the executive orders. Thank you. [applause] pres. Trump ok folks, gather around. [laughter] pres. Trump where is kevin . Here you go. [applause] pres. Trump [indiscernible] thank you very much, everybody. Congratulations. Congratulations. [applause] mr. President , can you talk about the attacks on syria and pres. Trump we have no soldiers in the area. We have been talking to turkey for three years. They have been wanting to do this for many years. They have been fighting each other for centuries. They have been fighting each other for hundreds of years, this has been going on. We were put into this battle, interjected. It was supposed to be a 30 day period and we have been there for many years. It is time to get out. Speaking with both sides, we have told the turkish president how we feel, but we are speaking to both sides to see what can be made out of a situation. But we have no soldiers in the area. We are getting out of the endless wars. And eventually somebody was going to have to make the decision. Frankly, we are getting praise for that decision. People are saying to bring people back home. We are really serving, we were serving as a police force. We defeated isis, we defeated the caliphate 100 . President erdogan and the existing groups of people, including the kurds. Which is ae the pkk, natural enemy of turkey, and likewise and opposite. They have been fighting for many years. They arbiter enemies. Are bitter enemies and possibly always will be. We are out of their. We have
