This is just Trump rescinding Executive Order 13989. Highlights from that EO.
No accepting gifts from registered lobbyists or lobbying organizations
Revolving door ban, outgoing. (That’s leaving the White House and going directly to work for a job you previously were over in the White House)
Revolving door ban, incoming. (That’s being a lobbyist and then getting hired into a department you lobbied.)
Revolving door ban, holding the door. (You can’t help others get in or out of a department into or hired from a lobby directly related to the department in question)
Golden Parachute Ban. (No hiring you if you had a golden parachute)
Vampire clause, everything agreed to here, everyone who reports to the person who agreed must agree to it.
So the first item is lobbying as usual, but the rest dealt with who could and couldn’t be hired/considered for nominations.
Power cited in the EO was 3 USC § 301, 5 USC § 3301,7301.

IMHO: I think the title is horrible.
It says a great deal about the us political system that this was an executive order and not an actual law.
Why do you think it’s horrible? All of those are basically just bribes with extra steps.
I didn’t comment on the action. I indicated the linked article’s title is horrible.
