On Wednesday evening, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that repeals the Biden administration's December 2021 definition of a showerhead—saying instead that the Oxford English Dictionary's definition of showerhead will do for the purposes of federal regulations.
"I like to take a nice shower to take care of my beautiful hair. I have to stand under the shower for 15 minutes till it gets wet," said Trump in the Oval Office Wednesday before signing the order.
The president's latest order is part of his longrunning pressure campaign against the appliance regulations of the Obama and Biden administrations. But the root of the issue goes back to the presidency of George H. W. Bush.
