\nVice President Kamala Harris (D- CA)<\/p>\n
Maybe a Biden Executive Order on gun control isn’t such a great idea after all. At least the Veep, once a big fan, is having some second thoughts on the matter. A Biden EO on the issue would immediately be tied up in the courts, maybe for years, and certainly would not survive the next conservative President. So much for instant gratification.

JAZZ SHAW<\/strong><\/p>\n President Biden had previously given indications that he was serious about passing new gun-grabbing laws and if he couldn\u2019t get Congress to act on the matter, he might just take it into his own hands using the pen and the phone. He was even going to appoint Beto O\u2019Rourke as his \u201cgun control czar.\u201d (Say\u2026 whatever happened to that guy? He\u2019s still not part of the administration.) This was a proposal that VP Kamala Harris appeared to heartily endorse\u2026at least until today, anyway. The subject was brought up to Harris again when she showed up on CBS This Morning. This time, the Veep seemed to walk the idea back considerably, favoring a path that would force Congress to do the dirty work for them, leaving Biden to simply sign some new measures into law. (Washington Examiner)<\/p>\n Vice President Kamala Harris suggested the White House might opt against taking executive action on guns, despite mounting outside pressure after two mass shootings in a week.<\/p>\n \u201cWe should first expect the U.S. Congress to act,\u201d Harris told CBS This Morning during an interview on Wednesday.<\/p>\n Asked if President Biden would take executive action, Harris said, \u201cI don\u2019t think the president is excluding that, but again, I want to be clear, that if we really want something that is going to be lasting, we need to pass legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n Harris, a former California Democratic senator, said she was \u201cnot willing to give up\u201d on efforts to reach the \u201chearts and minds and the reason\u201d of the evenly split upper chamber\u2019s members.<\/em><\/p>\n So what happened? Did Harris get cold feet or did Uncle Joe back down and let her know she needed to walk this idea back? I suppose some advisers might have gotten through to Uncle Joe and let him know that an executive order of that nature might not make it through the challenges that would obviously follow.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Executive Orders change policy, but cannot change laws.
