The White House Office of the Executive Clerk is responsible for managing the original legal documents signed by the President of the United States which make up his official acts—these include public laws, vetoes, treaties, executive orders, signing statements, nominations, proclamations, commissions, pardons, and certificates of awards or medals.[1][2] The office is further responsible for delivering any reports or messages the President wishes to send to the United States Congress.[2] Formed in 1865, it is one of the oldest offices in the Executive Office of the President of the United States.
