The nice thing about executive orders is they can be added by the next guy. Would be nice to see this as actual law, and not an executive order -- but if Trump cancels anything on his last day, Biden can re-do it on his first day.

But it won't apply to former Trump administration workers. That's the point, I'm sure Biden will have a better ethics policy but it can't be retroactive

Ah... so those who could line up a gig in that window would be grandfathered potentially.
