On his first day back in the White House, President Donald Trump signed a series of executive orders.
Here's a summary of some of the most significant ones.
Ending birthright citizenship
Along with a slew of immigration-focused orders, Trump is targeting automatic citizenship for US-born children of immigrants in the country illegally, to begin 30 days from Monday 20 January.
Leaving the World Health Organization
Trump signed an order to have the US exit the WHO in 12 months' time and stop all financial contributions to its work.
Renaming the Gulf of Mexico
Trump ordered the Gulf of Mexico to be renamed the "Gulf of America". He will also rename Alaska's Mount Denali as Mount McKinley.
Revoking electric vehicle targets
Trump revoked a non-binding executive order signed by Biden aimed at making half of all new vehicles sold in 2030 electric.
