Two attempts on the president-elect’s life during the campaign are poised to cast a shadow over his inauguration.

The New Orleans terrorist attack and Las Vegas shooting have put homeland security in the spotlight ahead of the Jan. 20 inauguration.

Transition groups are urging Congress to pass laws requiring “coordination across incoming and outgoing administrations to address national security vulnerabilities,” one expert said.

Biden was criticized for stoking speculation that the New Orleans and Las Vegas attacks were linked in his address to the nation from Camp David on New Year’s Day before clarifying that they were not a day later .

Biden has been repeatedly briefed on the attacks, including a briefing in the White House Situation Room on Thursday .

Trump 's transition team has pointed to the attacks as a reason why the Senate has to expeditiously confirm the president-elect's nominees.
