Biden vows executive action on climate change after Manchin delays US Senate legislation

'I will take strong executive action to meet this moment,' US president says

US President Joe Biden said on Friday he would take steps on his own to reduce climate emissions after efforts to pass legislation through Congress collapsed once again.

“If the Senate will not move to tackle the climate crisis and strengthen our domestic clean energy industry, I will take strong executive action to meet this moment,” Mr Biden said in a prepared statement.

The Democratic president did not say specifically what steps he would take. He said his actions would address climate change, create jobs, bolster US energy security and domestic manufacturing, and shield the economy from fossil fuel price spikes.

For more than a year, Democrats have struggled to pass a sweeping domestic policy bill that would boost incentives to reduce climate emissions, lower prescription drug costs and raise taxes on corporations and the wealthy.

Those talks appeared to collapse after Joe Manchin, a lone Democratic holdout, told Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer this week that he would only support legislation that lowered prescription drug pricing and would be unwilling to back proposed tax increase and climate provisions, a Democrat briefed on the conversations said.

So, in other words. if Congress(The people) do not wish it, I(the king) will decree it.

How far we have fallen as a nation to accept this as the way we should live.
