Summary

This order changes the title of an earlier executive order and extends the President's Advisory Commission on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.

It replaces the prior title with "Increasing Opportunity and Improving Quality of Life of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders," and it sets the commission's termination date to June 7, 2003, unless renewed earlier. The result is that the advisory commission created by the earlier order will continue operating under the updated title for about two more years.
