Rolling Back Trump

A to-do list for the next Democratic trifecta: every square is something Donald Trump or his administration signed, ordered, or put his name on since January 20, 2025. Some can be undone with a signature. Others will take an act of Congress, new rules, or years of rebuilding. Each square shows who it affects.

Cast doubt on measles deaths

Where it standsIn effect
  1. Aug 25, 2026Pennsylvania's health department announced "two measles-associated deaths" in Lancaster County, both unvaccinated residents. The CDC's official account initially extended condolences and said it was "working closely with state and local health departments." Source ↗
  2. Aug 26, 2026Kennedy said in Tampa, "They cannot find any measles deaths in Lancaster County," and later posted on X that the state's announcement was "premature" and the deaths may have been "fabricated by one of the Governor's hopeful staffers." Source ↗
  3. Aug 27, 2026The CDC's official account responded to Kennedy's "fabricated" claim: "We appreciate Secretary Kennedy's efforts to clarify conflicting information from Pennsylvania officials...CDC is working to determine what actually occurred," rather than disputing him. Source ↗
  4. Aug 27, 2026CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz said in a Fox Business interview, "We don't know if the children died from measles or had another condition that was already attacking them and they happened to get measles at the same time," The Hill reported. Source ↗
  5. Aug 29, 2026In a Fox News interview, Kennedy called the deaths "so-called 'measles deaths,'" and said, "The governor has not been able to point to any child that died from measles in Lancaster County." Source ↗
  6. Aug 29, 2026NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya said Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro was "playing this out over the airwaves for political purposes," like during COVID, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. Source ↗
  7. Aug 30, 2026The CDC's weekly measles dashboard update formally excluded the two Pennsylvania deaths, stating "available information does not establish whether measles caused or contributed to the deaths or whether the individuals died from other causes while infected with measles." Source ↗
  8. Sep 29, 2026Reuters reported Pennsylvania had by then reported four measles-related deaths this year, but the CDC's national tally still counted only two, verified through death-certificate review rather than the state's own classification. Source ↗
  9. Sep 30, 2026Pennsylvania's Health Department reported the state's fifth measles-related death this year, an unvaccinated Lancaster County resident, without releasing further details to protect the family's privacy. Source ↗
  10. Oct 12, 2026A Guardian/Important Context investigation reported that Children's Health Defense, the anti-vaccine group Kennedy once led, said it prompted a Texas medical board to review malpractice complaints against doctors who treated two unvaccinated girls who died of measles in 2025, alleging improper antibiotics, not measles, caused their deaths. Source ↗
  11. Oct 12, 2026The Guardian and Important Context said they could not confirm CHD's claim that the medical board was actually reviewing the complaints. Infectious-disease expert Paul Offit said anti-vaccine activists want to "distract, distract, distract" from the damage they have caused. Source ↗
  12. Oct 12, 2026A Franklin County coroner reported a sixth possible 2026 measles-associated death, a 39-year-old unvaccinated woman; the state Health Department said it was still reviewing the case and had not yet confirmed it. Source ↗
  13. Oct 20, 2026Reuters reported the CDC confirmed a third measles-related death in the U.S. in 2026, after NCHS verified measles as the underlying cause, without naming the state. Pennsylvania's own count stood at five confirmed measles-associated deaths as of October 19; the CDC's national count had stood at two since late September. Source ↗
  14. Oct 22, 2026California and Washington officials asked the CDC this spring to validate a high-volume measles test that can diagnose 500 cases in eight hours and did not hear back for two months; it then cited other priorities, a letter to new CDC director Dr. Erica Schwartz from the four-state West Coast Health Alliance, obtained by The New York Times, said. Source ↗
  15. Oct 22, 2026 · LatestHHS did not answer questions about the test; the CDC's workforce has shrunk by about 30% since Trump began his second term, the Times reported. Source ↗
How to roll it backCongress can hold oversight hearings on federal health officials who publicly dispute state-verified death counts during a disease outbreak, and require HHS to explain, with named evidence, any delay in counting a state-confirmed death toward the CDC's national tally.

About

How we choose

Anything Trump or his administration has done since January 20, 2025 that a future administration or Congress could reverse, limit, or keep from happening again. It goes on the list when official records document it or a major news outlet reports it.

How it's updated

Every morning we check the Federal Register, court rulings in the cases we track, federal campaign-finance filings (FEC), SEC filings from federal contractors we follow, and major news. New orders are confirmed by the Federal Register, AP, or Reuters before they're added. Descriptions come from the documents themselves and independent reporting, not White House press materials.

Sources and corrections

Every square links to its source: official records first (Federal Register, court filings, federal contract, FEC and SEC records), then wire services and major news outlets. No advocacy groups, opinion pieces, or niche publications. Each square shows when it was last updated. Rulings in tracked cases are checked daily, and errors are corrected when found.

Independent project, not affiliated with any party or campaign.

The lookup for your members of Congress runs entirely in your browser. Your ZIP code is never sent to us or anyone else, and it isn't saved.

What others see

Like any website, this page has to be delivered to you. Our host, Cloudflare, handles that and processes standard request information, such as IP address and browser type, to deliver and protect the site. We see only overall totals, like the number of visits in a day. The site's fonts come from Google Fonts, which receives the same kind of request information. Links to sources, Congress, and social networks take you to those sites, which have their own policies.
