Executive Order 14388 continues the suspension of duty-free de minimis treatment for imports from all countries, maintaining tariffs on small-value shipments that were previously exempt. This policy increases costs on imported goods for American consumers and businesses by eliminating the threshold below which duties were not collected. The action directly impacts e-commerce purchases, small business imports, and everyday consumer prices for foreign-sourced items.

President Trump signed Executive Order 13847 on August 31, 2018, directing the Department of Labor to expand access to retirement savings plans for small businesses and self-employed workers through Association Retirement Accounts (ARAs). The order simplified regulations to allow small employers to pool resources and offer 401(k)-style plans with reduced compliance costs. The confirmed direct effect was increased eligibility for small business employees to access employer-sponsored retirement savings options previously available primarily to larger corporations.

On December 8, 2017, President Trump signed Memorandum 2017-27037 delaying the Small Business Administration's submission of a report required under the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015. The memorandum postponed the deadline for delivering this congressionally-mandated report on trade enforcement activities and small business impacts. The delay extended the timeline for Congress and the public to receive official documentation on SBA trade enforcement efforts.
