It is expected that the Biden Administration’s SEC will renew focus on the US conflict minerals rule and other responsible sourcing measures.  The SEC could provide additional guidance and re-formulation of the US conflict minerals rule to address the courts’ decisions.  Such a re-formulation could result in a significant overhaul of the rule.  Congress could also weigh in with new legislation.
