Trump Signs Executive Order 14408 Revoking Two Older Federal-Lands Vehicle Orders
On May 29, 2026, President Trump signed Executive Order 14408, Removing Unnecessary and Counterproductive Restrictions on Access to Federal Lands, at the White House in Washington, revoking two executive orders from the 1970s: Executive Order 11644 of February 8, 1972, on off-road vehicle use on public lands, and Executive Order 11989 of May 24, 1977.
The new order directs the Secretary of War, the Secretary of the Interior, the Secretary of Agriculture and the Board of Directors of the Tennessee Valley Authority, among others, to begin rulemaking to revoke or revise regulations issued under the revoked orders. The order states that existing statutes, including the National Historic Preservation Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Endangered Species Act and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, already provide a framework for managing federal lands.
The order was signed on May 29, 2026, and published at 91 Federal Register 33577.
