Telecommunication and Mobile: Telecommunication Infrastructure
The need to provide broadband coverage and connectivity for the ever-increasing demand from consumers and businesses creates opportunities and unique challenges for the infrastructure responsible for delivering this technology.

Thought Leadership
On 3 February 2025, the United States reached agreements with Canada and Mexico to pause tariffs on imports from those countries in exchange for actions on border security, illegal drugs, and immigration.
Since his inauguration on 20 January 2025, President Donald J. Trump has signed dozens of executive orders and presidential memoranda on topics including, but not limited to, energy and the environment; immigration; international trade; foreign policy; diversity, equity and inclusion; transforming the civil service and federal government; and technology.
President Donald Trump issued a flurry of executive orders (EOs) in his first hours and days in office. The numerous EOs cover a range of topics, many of which impact environmental regulation and related areas. While many of President Trump’s EOs will be—and already are—facing litigation challenges, and others will require congressional approval prior to full implementation, the EOs nevertheless signal the intention and direction of the Trump administration in the environmental law realm and beyond.
On 21 February 2025, President Trump ordered three additional steps to implement the America First Trade Policy announced on 20 January 20 2025.
