The next presidential inauguration will be on January 20, 2021. The six months between then and today will involve a flurry of regulatory activity, just as the final months of presidential terms always do. Whether the next inauguration features Donald Trump or Joe Biden, agencies will try to complete as many regulatory proceedings as possible before the inauguration, with an eye to not just the end of the current presidential term but also the beginning of the next one.

What actions should we expect agencies to take? To what extent can the current administration issue "midnight rules" affecting policy beyond January 20? And to what extent could the Congressional Review Act permanently erase those rules?
