Continuance of Certain Federal Advisory Committees

President Trump signed Executive Order 13811 on September 29, 2017, directing the continuation of federal advisory committees that would otherwise expire. The order extended the life of committees established under the Federal Advisory Committee Act, preventing their automatic termination. This maintained ongoing federal advisory bodies across various agencies and departments without requiring new congressional authorization.
