# Craft brief — EO 14179 (Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence)

**Signed:** 2025-01-23 · Executive branch  
**Sources:** White House presidential action page and/or Federal Register PDF  
**Slug:** `eo-14179-removing-barriers-ai`

## Purpose
Residual-honest package of Executive Order 14179.

## Mechanism (one line)
Revokes EO 14110 path; directs AI Action Plan; OMB memo revision — executive policy, not statute

## Must NOT
- Not a Congress bill. Not enacted statute.  
- Do not collapse into companion bill language without citing both packages.

## Aligns with (bills shelf — different legal status)
- `/bills/hr-5388-ai-uniformity/` — Action Plan / federal leadership posture — different tool (EO vs 5-year state moratorium)
- `/bills/s-4441-create-ai/` — Innovation/capacity narrative — EO does not establish NAIRR

## Rescinds / modifies
- Revokes **policy path** of EO 14110 (2023) — agency action review/suspend/revise
