                Executive Order 14264 of April 9, 2025

                
Maintaining Acceptable Water Pressure in 
                Showerheads

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, it is hereby ordered:

                Section 1. Purpose. Overregulation chokes the American 
                economy and stifles personal freedom. A small but 
                meaningful example is the Obama-Biden war on showers: 
                Twice in the last 12 years, those administrations 
                promulgated multi-thousand-word regulations defining 
                the word ``showerhead.'' See Energy Conservation 
                Program: Definition of Showerhead, 86 Fed. Reg. 71797 
                (December 20, 2021); Energy Conservation Program for 
                Consumer Products and Certain Commercial and Industrial 
                Equipment: Test Procedures for Showerheads, Faucets, 
                Water Closets, Urinals, and Commercial Prerinse Spray 
                Valves, 78 Fed. Reg. 62970 (October 23, 2013). To the 
                extent any definition is necessary for this common 
                piece of hardware, the Oxford English Dictionary 
                defines ``showerhead'' in one short sentence.

                Sec. 2. Ordering the Repeal of the 13,000-Word 
                Regulation Defining ``Showerhead''. I hereby direct the 
                Secretary of Energy to publish in the Federal Register 
                a notice rescinding Energy Conservation Program: 
                Definition of Showerhead, 86 Fed. Reg. 71797 (December 
                20, 2021), including the definition of ``showerhead'' 
                codified at 10 C.F.R. 430.2. Notice and comment is 
                unnecessary because I am ordering the repeal. The 
                rescission shall be effective 30 days from the date of 
                publication of the notice.

                Sec. 3. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order 
                shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect the 
                functions of the Director of the Office of Management 
                and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or 
                legislative proposals.

                    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with 
                applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.

                    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, 
                create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, 
                enforceable at law or in equity by any party against 
                the United States, its departments, agencies, or 
                entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any 
                other person.

                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    April 9, 2025.
