On November 15, President-elect Donald Trump officially announced that North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum will be leading the U.S. Department of the Interior. This decision marks a significant step in Trump's administration as he aims to prioritize energy dominance and streamline regulations in the energy sector.
Trump emphasized the establishment of the National Energy Council, which will play a crucial role in achieving U.S. energy dominance.
