The pool has been called to gather for the executive order signing that had been scheduled to take place in the Oval Office at 1:30PM. As it stands, this is the only public event on the president's schedule today.

Karoline Leavitt posted on X that the EO would create a new White House commission "aimed at putting military families at the heart of military readiness." According to the post, the presidential military spouse commission will advise the president on policies affecting military spouses and families.
