Washington President Joe Biden reportedly wont rule out using executive orders to crackdown on Americans constitutionally protected Second Amendment rights. The revelation was made during a White House press conference on Tuesday in response to a statement that Biden put out last week calling for banning semi-automatic firearms in addition to other gun control measures, the Daily Wire reported.

What is your timetable for action on what the president calls common sense measures? a reporter asked White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, And whats the realistic hope that you have this will pass both houses?

Well, we havent proposed a package at this point, Psaki responded. So its hard for me to make a prediction about its likelihood of passing. But I will say that the president is somebody throughout his career who has advocated for smart gun safety measures. He is not afraid of standing up to the NRA. Hes done it multiple times and won on background checks and a range of issues. And it is a priority to him on a personal level, but I dont have a prediction for you, or preview for you on a timeline of a package, and certainly not what it will look like and how it goes through Congress.

WATCH:

Later in the press conference, a second reporter asked Psaki, Does the president still plan to take executive action on gun control? Next came the disclosure that its feasible.

The president has a range of actions at his disposal, Psaki responded. He hasnt ruled out either of those options.

The question came after Biden called on Congress late last week to enact commonsense gun law reforms, including requiring background checks on all gun sales, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and eliminating immunity for gun manufacturers who knowingly put weapons of war on our streets.
