Story by Aubrie Spady • 2h

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to roll back several of President Joe Biden's green energy policies and initiatives when he assumes office in 2024.

While on the campaign trail, Trump vowed to lift the Biden administration's "war on energy" and "disastrous" energy policies.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
