Biden Plans Executive Orders Reversing Trump Action on Job Destroying Climate Accord, Immigration and More

Campaign insiders say that Biden’s policy and transition policy teams are “focusing now very much on executive power.”

While Biden has been proclaimed President-elect by the mainstream media – despite an impending recount in Georgia, no state certification of results, and legal action by Trump and his campaign (who reminded the country earlier today that legal votes decide who is president, not the news media), it is becoming apparent that a Biden Harris administration would be hell bent on immediately reversing many of Trump’s most base pleasing actions.

As Chron reports, Biden is planning to quickly sign a series of executive orders if sworn into office on Jan. 20, sending a message that the new boss is here to place the nation back on the Obama era trajectory of supporting globalist trade deals, embracing illegal immigration, and more.

He will rejoin the Paris climate accords, according to those close to his campaign and commitments he has made in recent months, and he will reverse President Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization. He will repeal the ban on immigration from many Muslim-majority countries, and he will reinstate the program allowing “dreamers,” who were brought to the United States illegally as children, to remain in the country, according to people familiar with his plans.

Campaign insiders who spoke to Chron say that Biden’s policy and transition policy teams are “focusing now very much on executive power” as it could become a major tool for getting his agenda through if Republicans retain their majority in the Senate.

“I expect that to be freely used in a Biden administration at this point, if the Senate becomes a roadblock,” a Biden ally close to his team said.

Democrats have held on to their slight majority in the House while control of the Senate will be determined on January 5th when two run-off races are decided in Georgia. If Democrats win both of those races they will split the Senate, meaning Biden’s Vice President, Kamala Harris, would cast tie-breaking votes.

In a 2017 Rose Garden address, President Trump cited data from the National Economic Research Associate (NERA) that shows U.S. commitment to the Paris Climate Accord could cost America as much as 2.7 million jobs by 2025.

“This includes 440,000 fewer manufacturing jobs — not what we need — believe me, including automobile jobs, and the further decimation of vital American industries on which countless communities rely,” Trump said.  

The NERA showed that under Obama’s plan to reduce emissions 80 percent by 2050, GDP would reduce by nearly $3 trillion, industrial employment would fall by 6.5 million jobs, and average household income would decrease $7,000 by 2040.

The Biden plan is more radical than that as he has pledged to commit to a plan of reaching net zero emissions by 2050.
