History

A presidential proclamation is a statement issued by a president on a matter of public policy. They are generally defined as, "The act of causing some state matters to be published or made generally known. A written or printed document in which are contained such matters, issued by proper authority; as the president's proclamation, the governor's, the mayor's proclamation."[2] Executive orders, Presidential memoranda, and Presidential proclamations are compiled by the Office of the Federal Register (within the National Archives and Records Administration) and is printed by the Government Printing Office which are published daily, except on federal holidays. A free source to get a copy of these documents is the Federal Register that contains government agency rules, proposed rules, and public notices.[3] There are no copyright restrictions on the Federal Register; as a work of the U.S. government, it is in the public domain.[4]

Ending Discriminatory Bans on Entry to The United States was proclaimed to revoke former president Donald Trump's series of executive orders and proclamations which banned travel from and restricted visas for immigrants from multiple majority Muslim Middle Eastern countries.[1]
