Biden Preparing to Declare Pandemic-Like ‘Climate Emergency,’ Energy Industry Insiders Warn
Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration is preparing to declare a “climate emergency” with Covid pandemic-like restrictions on public freedoms, several energy industry insiders are warning.
Energy industry groups fear the Biden White House is planning to declare a pandemic-like emergency that will grant the president sweeping new powers.
“They’re leaning to that direction,” U.S. Oil and Gas Association President Tim Stewart told Just the News.
“If you grant the president’s emergency powers to declare a climate emergency, it’s just like Covid.”
A “climate emergency” declaration could give Biden and the Democrats “vast and unchecked authority to shut down everything from communications to infrastructure,” warns Stewart.
“They can literally do exactly what they did in Covid,” Stewart said.
“If you disagree with the climate emergency, [speech] can be shut down.
“We really need to be paying attention to that because that power could be extended indefinitely until the ‘climate emergency’ is over.
“Who knows how long that would last.”
Yesterday while no one was looking there were new environmental regulations and mandates put out.
