WILMINGTON, Del. (Reuters) -The Biden administration will take swift action when it assumes office on Jan. 20 to roll back harmful Trump administration policies that have not taken effect by Inauguration day, a spokeswoman for President-elect Joe Biden's transition team said on Wednesday.

"The Biden-Harris White House will issue a memo to take effect afternoon Eastern Time on January 20 that will halt, or delay, midnight regulations," Jen Psaki told a news conference.

Psaki gave as an example an expected Department of Labor rule that would make it easier for companies to call their workers independent contractors to avoid minimum wage and overtime protections.

“If it takes effect, that rule will make it easier to misclassify employees as independent contractors, costing workers more than $3.7 billion annually," she said.

4. They can. The intent here is for those which have NOT yet gone into effect to halt them altogether.

5. I Quite UNdrstand That

2. I bet Joe is busier now than a cat in a room full of rocking chairs!

He is and will be expunging layers of crap that most people on Hoarders haven’t even dreamed about in their worse nightmares!

Fortunately he has a team of professionals who know how to exterminate roaches and rats and viral diseases.

They are already on it!!!

3. This is where we start.
