Upon assuming the presidency, Joe Biden wasted no time issuing a slew of far-ranging executive orders. To date, Biden has issued 36 executive orders in total, a figure that’s more than double what both Donald Trump and Barack Obama issued at the same point during their respective presidencies.
Not surprisingly, a number of Biden’s executive orders focus on combatting the coronavirus and providing relief to Americans who have been impacted by it. One such order issued a few weeks ago mandates that anyone traveling on public transport — which includes planes, busses, trains, and ferries — has to wear a mask.
