Watchdog Warns Biden Will Install Build Back Better Through Executive Orders
Dec 21, 2021 10:13:49 #
A regulations watchdog predicted that President Joe Biden will try to use executive orders to implement his $2 trillion Build Back Better legislation.
Clyde Wayne Crews, of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, told the Washington Examiner that Biden appeared poised to expand federal regulations greatly, especially if he loses control of the House and Senate.
Former President Barack Obama called that approach ruling with a "pen and a phone" when he lost support on Capitol Hill, the Examiner said.
"Despite all the talk we have from Biden and many Democrats about protecting democracy, progressives see themselves as experts, and progressivism itself is rooted in the rule of experts," Crews told the Examiner.
"It looks like Biden's not getting his Build Back Better Act at the moment, but take it from me, they'll be using the occasion to say, 'Well, hell, we can do this just using the infrastructure legislation and other precedence and act without Congress,' bringing back the infamous pen and phone."

If biden issues executive orders, then they are implemented unless challenged thru the judicial system. A long, drawn- out process. Think obama
