What will happen through the end February?
1) lots and lots of Executive Orders, reversing those of Trump.
2) lots of new Executive Orders and policy changes
3) getting in place all that is necessary to accelerate the delivery of vaccine, including
any needed enactments of Defense Production Act, passing the peak in mid February
4) hundreds of appointments, staffing up all the agencies
5) approval of the vast majority of Biden's appointments
6) whatever is going to be done with regard to impeachment
7) perhaps a COVID/stimulus bill, perhaps not (the current bill has unemployment
benefits though March 15th, so the end of February may be the right time for a bill
8) introduction of a comprehensive immigration bill (Biden's #2 priority)
============
I will note that I really hope for cooperation. However, none is needed. At most, a dozen
senators would be needed to approve a stimulus package.
Any cooperation would really be needed in March as legislation is considered. And even here,
what is necessary in a group of a MINORITY of senate Republicans to work with Biden (a solid
15 would be plenty.
