President Donald Trump is preparing to tap David Rosner to be chair of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which oversees key decisions about natural gas export terminals and power lines.
The move, described by a White House official who asked for anonymity before a formal announcement, would put a Democrat at the head of an agency central to Trump’s plans to propel American oil, gas and coal.
