Certainly there were indications during the campaign that Mr. Biden planned to target the KXL pipeline permit, which was approved by President Trump in March 2017 after being rejected by the Obama administration.
“Biden strongly opposed the Keystone pipeline in the last administration, stood alongside President Obama and Secretary [John] Kerry to reject it in 2015, and will proudly stand in the Roosevelt Room again as President and stop it for good by rescinding the Keystone XL pipeline permit,” Stef Goldman, Biden campaign policy director, said in a May statement.
The Biden administration is also expected to name Rohit Chopra as the head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, in moves that would bring Obama-era regulators to oversee key financial agencies.
