Name: Matt Whittaker Zenger News

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bra6@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Zenger News

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 11 January

Query:

I'm writing a story for Zenger News, an international news
service, about what might be the longer-term ramifications of
the business world's reaction against the unrest at the Capitol.

Here are my main questions:

-- What does it mean for U.S. business interests under a Biden
administration that some conservative proponents of less
regulation and lower taxes might be stained by Trump's
unpopularity?

-- Might Democrats have less resistance from business groups for
raising taxes, increasing regulation and undoing Trump's
energy-sector-supported legacy with the EPA and land management
agencies?

-- And will there be lasting ramifications for investing in the
U.S.? Political stability has long been one of the reasons
companies invest in the United States and other developed
nations. Scenes from the Capitol yesterday were more reminiscent
of turmoil in some international frontier markets where placing
capital is much riskier.

Here's some background:

Many high ranking business officials came out yesterday to
condemn the violence--everyone from the CEOs of the nation's
biggest banks to the National Association of Realtors, the
American Petroleum Institute and even the credit union lobby.

But there were a couple remarks that were exceptionally notable.
One, from a manufacturing lobbying group, went so far as to
suggest the 25th Amendment should be invoked to remove Trump
from office. The other, from the CEO of Goldman Sachs, said that
yesterday's attacks further squandered the "reservoir of
goodwill" other nations have toward the United States.

This may be the strongest repudiation of Trump from the business
community--which often supports Republican policies--but it's
not the first. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, along with more
than 100 other business and non-profit groups in October asked
Trump to withdraw his order limiting diversity training. In
June, dozens of companies and trade associations urged the
Supreme Court to throw out Trump's recision of DACA, saying that
young immigrants greatly help the economy. And there was all
kinds of business resistance to his trade war with China.

Requirements:

I would love to talk with analysts, business experts in
companies or academia, financial historians investors,
strategists and/or experts in the intersection of business and
politics. Other types of sources may work too.

Prior to COVID-19 some schools and teachers had already been

issue: why do teachers love/hate hybrid school models? And, what
