During World War II, two notable executive orders were issued by President Franklin D. Roosevelt: Executive Order 9066 and Executive Order 8802. Executive Order 9066, issued in February 1942, authorized the internment of Japanese Americans in relocation camps. Executive Order 8802, issued in June 1941, prohibited racial discrimination in the defense industry and established the Fair Employment Practices Committee to ensure compliance. These orders reflected the complex social and political dynamics of the United States during the war.
