President Obama's first order: Halt pending regulations

Even as President Obama and family come to grips with their new status, the hours-old administration is already fast at work.

In his first act as President, Obama approved a memo by White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel which orders all federal agencies to freeze former President Bush's pending regulations until the new administration has a change to review them.

On his new Web site, WhiteHouse.gov, the President also issued a proclamation that Jan. 20, 2009, is to be a "national day of renewal and reconciliation."

President Obama called upon all Americans to "serve one another" as a way of helping to "remake this nation."


IT'S A NEW DAY!!!!
