On his first day in the White House, Joe Biden also intends to sign an executive order to stop the federal executions, which were reinstated by Donald Trump after a 17-year hiatus.
Politico writes it.
In recent days, the dems have presented a bill to abolish the death penalty for federal crimes.
One of Biden's first acts as soon as he takes office in the White House will be to cancel the permit for the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline.
Authorization for the controversial work, which crosses some territories considered sacred by Native Americans, was granted by Donald Trump in 2017 after his predecessor Barack Obama blocked it in 2015.
The Keystone XL is a nearly two thousand kilometer long work that should carry around 830,000 barrels of oil per day at full capacity, transporting it from the Alberta region in Canada to the United States through Montana, South Dakota and Nebraska.
Those who have always opposed the Keystone XL consider it a harmful infrastructure both from an environmental and cultural point of view.
