Despite expectations of a productive start, the second Trump administration has recorded the lowest legislative output among recent presidents, enacting only five laws in its first 100 days. By contrast, earlier administrations, including Trump's first term, demonstrated much more vigorous legislative activity. With the majority in Congress, Republicans have failed to utilize the budget reconciliation process effectively, leading to a notable stagnation in legislation that belies the ambitious nature commonly associated with Trump's leadership and the challenges this poses moving forward.
In his second term, Trump has signed only five bills into law in the first 100 days, fewer than any president since Eisenhower.
Despite Republican control, the lack of legislative activity suggests a failure to leverage the budget reconciliation process effectively.
