Abstract
Significance Sessions marks the first Trump appointee of the confirmation process, which will continue over the coming weeks. Trump’s appointees to cabinet positions, independent agencies and the Executive Office of the President (EOP) may offer some early indications of his domestic policy priorities and the advice he receives. While the necessary compromises of office-holding will limit Trump’s ability to deliver on campaign promises, early indications suggest dramatic shifts in Washington against orthodox positions on regulation and social programmes. Impacts Federal social policy interventions are likely to be rolled back dramatically over the next four years. Confirmation hearings will provide Senate Democrats with a forum to attack the White House. However, Democrats’ internal divisions and limited political clout will allow conservatives to advance their deregulatory agenda.
