  • Halting funding for the construction of Trump’s border wall
  • Reversing Trump’s travel ban targeting largely Muslim countries
  • Imposing a mask mandate on federal property
  • Ramping up vaccination supplies
  • Requiring international travelers to provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test prior to traveling to the US
