As of the new administration, the official "Compilation of Presidential Documents" will be published daily online. This replaces a weekly printed version that has been published since 1965.

The compilation includes:

  • proclamations
  • executive orders
  • speeches
  • press conferences
  • communications to Congress and Federal agencies
  • statements regarding bill signings and vetoes
  • appointments, nominations
  • reorganization plans
  • resignations
  • retirements
  • acts approved by the President
  • nominations submitted to the Senate
  • White House announcements
  • press releases

This was announced two days ago in the Federal Register (PDF).

The compilation has its own Web address, http://www.presidentialdocuments.gov, and goes back to 1993.

As of this writing the only document from the Obama administration is his inaugural address.
