Trump plans to reverse key Biden policies on climate, civil service, and Ukraine
President-elect Donald Trump plans to reverse several key policies of President Biden, focusing on civil service protections, climate legislation, and support for Ukraine. His administration may face challenges in implementing these changes.
Trump aims to dismantle Biden's civil service protections, particularly a rule that strengthens merit-based hiring. Repealing this rule would require a lengthy regulatory process, making immediate changes unlikely.
On climate, Trump has expressed intentions to cut the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes significant clean energy investments. Meanwhile, Biden has ensured that remaining funds for Ukraine will be allocated before Trump takes office, amid uncertainty about future U.S. support.
