NEWS INTRO

-------------------------

In today's news, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were officially sworn in as President and Vice President of the United States. As soon as Biden got into the oval office, he got to work and is already reversing some of Trump's policies with executive orders. He has signed 15 executive orders so far, with the first to boost the federal response to the coronavirus crisis. There will be a mandate to wear masks and practice social distancing on all federal government property. Other orders that were signed reversed the Trump administration's stance on climate change and immigration.
