  6. The Trump Impact on Domestic Energy • More supportive for construction of oil and gas pipelines; • In favor of opening federal lands for exploration and development; • Appointment of Scott Pruitt as head of the EPA is a definite indicator about reduced environmental restrictions on every energy resource; • Possible corporate tax cuts and less regulation could also be a positive for the energy industry.
