We have made tremendous progress with these great business leaders, amazing progress. They are getting together in groups and coming up with suggestions about their companies and how to bring jobs back to the United States. I think it will be a fantastic day for the country. We met yesterday and met with these folks. Excessive regulation is killing jobs, driving Country Companies out of the country like never before. Reducing wages and raising prices. I have listened to American Companies and workers. I have been listening to them for a long time. I have been listening to them complain for a long time. This executive order directs each agency to establish a Regulatory Task force which will ensure it is a team of dedicated and a real team of dedicated people to research all regulations that are unnecessary and harmful to the economy and therefore harmful to the creation of jobs and business. Each task force will make recommendations to repeal existing regulations. The Regulatory Burden is for the people behind me and for some companies and impossible situation. They will also have to really while toery once in a us so we can report on the with somend come up even better solutions. This executive order is one of many ways we are going to get real results when it comes to removing job killing regulations this executive order is one of manyand unleashing economic opportunities. We have issued an order that says for everyone new regulation, two old regulations must be eliminated. That is going to be tremendous, but what we are doing is much more than that. Every regulation should have to pass a simple test. Does it make life better or safer for American Workers or consumers . If the answer is no, we will be getting rid of it and getting rid of it quickly. We will stop punishing companies for doing business in the United States. It is going to be just the opposite. They are going to be incentivized for their business in the United States. We are working hard to roll back the Regulatory Burden so that coal mines, factory workers, Small Business owners and others can grow their businesses and thrive. We cannot allow government to be an obstacle for government opportunity. We are going to bring back jobs and create more opportunity, maybe more than ever before the country. We have made tremendous strides over the last period of time. We are four weeks into it. I think i have done a good job. I want to thank these great business leaders. Some of them are with us in the white house and have had tremendous success. In business and they are helping us sort out what is going on because for many years, long beyond president obama, i will say it has been disastrous for business. This will be a place for business to do well and thrive. With the signing of this executive order, i would like to congratulate everybody behind me and thank you for initially getting the group together. Really fantastic. Thank you. President trump should i give this to andrew . [laughter] [applause] President Trump thank you everybody. Thank you very much. Thank you. The white house did not hold its usual on camera briefing friday. Sean spicer invited reporters to his office for a q a but someday news outlets like the new york times, politico were blocked from attending. Other news organizations that were invited opted not to attend including the associated press. Here is an audio excerpt from the briefing where one reporter asked the question of not letting in certain media outlets. Given that that is a concern to some mr. Spicer i think we have shown an abundance of accessibility. We have brought more reporters into this spot with the idea that every Single Person can get there answers. We have gone beyond to making our team more assessable than probably any prior administration. Why not the other outlets . mr. Spicer there are 3000 credentialed to come in. There are six. Mr. Spicer that is false. To say there are six, credentiao come maybe six that reached out to you
