President Joe Biden has billed his administration as a return to normalcy, but when it comes to executive orders, he's anything but.
During his first 16 days in office, Biden has issued more than twice as many executive orders and memoranda as President Trump over the same time period. Biden has issued 36 while Trump only issued 17.
That's to be expected, you might argue, given that Biden is a Democrat while Trump is a Republican. But not so fast.
Biden has also more than doubled President Barack "Pen and Phone" Obama. Like Trump, Obama issued 17 executive orders and memoranda during his first 16 days.
Going back to the George W. Bush administration, Biden's executive action is even less normal. Bush only issued two executive orders during his first 16 days in office.
But don't take our word for it. Biden's executive orders have been so out of the ordinary that even CNN reported that Biden is "blowing his predecessors out of the water."
When not even the mainstream media can ignore the overreach of a Democratic president, you know it's bad.
What can the American people do to stop Biden's clear authoritarian streak? The answer lies in Article V of the Consittution.
Article V allows for two methods to propose constitutional amendments. The first is through Congress, and all amendments so far have been proposed through that method.
But Congress will never propose the amendments our country needs. They'll never limit their own power by shrinking the size of government, cap their own spending by mandating a balanced budget, or cut their careers short by imposing term limits.
Worst of all, they'll never propose amendments that place real limitations on executive power. Congress has ceded much of its power to executive agencies, and they're too spineless to take back their decision-making authority.
Fortunately, a Convention of States is called and controlled by the states and also has the power to propose amendments. These amendments can do everything Congress wont, including banning executive orders and placing limits on executive power.
Fifteen states have called for a Convention, and it takes 34 to make one happen. To join the team and help make your state #16, sign the petition below!
