What happened

Well supportedReported by 16 independent outlets

President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 14406 on May 19, 2026, which requires the US Department of the Treasury to issue formal advisories regarding risks associated with the exploitation of the US financial system by non-work-authorized populations. Following this, regulators, including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the National Credit Union Administration, issued guidance reminding banks of their know-your-customer requirements concerning credit risk for borrowers who are not authorized to work in the United States.
