But I’m the president! They have to do what I say!

From Legal Insurrection.

Attorney generals in 14 states warned President Joe Biden they began “reviewing” legal options regarding his decision to revoke the Keystone XL pipeline.

(The paragraph should read “Attorneys general…”)

“Your decision will result in devastating damage to many of our states and local communities,” they wrote.

The AGs noted that Biden’s executive order cited “climate crisis,” but did not explain how eliminating the Keystone XL pipeline protects “Americans and the domestic economy from harmful climate impacts.”

But it’s obvious why Biden took this route: appealing to special interest groups.

The AGs reminded Biden he hurts the people he promised to help.

“We cannot ‘Build Back Better’ by reflexively tearing down,” they stressed. “America needs every tool in her possession to emerge from the COVID-19 crisis stronger and more secure. You have expressed a commitment to unite the Nation. If that is to be more than empty rhetoric, you must fully consider and account for the alarming effects your actions have on states, local communities, farmers, and workers.”
