Obama says he’ll be taking ‘executive actions’ without Congress on ‘regular basis’ to ‘heal the economy’
President Barack Obama told an audience in Nevada on Monday that he will be regularly announcing “executive actions” his administration will take to “heal the economy” without the “dysfunctional” Congress.
“I’m here to say to all of you and to say to the people of Nevada and the people of Las Vegas, we can’t wait for an increasingly dysfunctional Congress to do its job. Where they won’t act, I will,” Obama said.
“I’ve told my administration to keep looking every single day for actions we can take without Congress, steps that can save consumers money, make government more efficient and responsive, and help heal the economy. And we’re going to be announcing these executive actions on a regular basis,” the president said.
Obama then explained the home mortgage refinancing plan that his administration announced on Monday.
Obama calls Congress ‘increasinglydysfunctional’
“We can’t just wait for Congress,” Obama said. “Until they act, until they do what they need to do, we’re going to act on our own, because we can’t wait for Congress to help our families and our economy.”
