A Philadelphia City Council committee is planning a "Trump Preparedness Hearing" on Wednesday to discuss steps the city could take to protect communities who leaders believe are under threat from executive orders signed by President Trump early in his second term.

The move is one of many executive actions focused on the federal workforce enacted since Trump took office Monday afternoon. His other actions addressed DEI hiring more broadly, froze hiring in most executive agencies and directed a return to in-person work for many federal employees, among other directives.

President Trump, starting his second term, began a slew of executive actions by rescinding 78 Biden-era executive orders, executive actions, and presidential memoranda.
