OK, but how does this prevent her from doing an end run and issuing an executive order banning future use of lead in sporting ammunition?
The president of the US lacks the authority of Mickey Mouse dictators.
There is lots of hype, misinformation, and outright lies associated with the "banning" of lead bullets.
The current administration has refused to to along with the crazies who want the EPA to ban lead in bullets. The EPA has consistently stated that the agency lacks the authority to ban lead bullets.
Federal courts have ruled that the EPA lacks the authority to ban lead bullets:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cannot regulate lead ammunition used by hunters, a federal appeals court
said Tuesday.
A group of environmental organizations was seeking to force the EPA to regulate spent lead bullets and shots under the Toxic Substances Control Act. They argued the lead from bullet fragments is harmful to animals and hunters who eat those animals.
But the EPA rejected the groups’ petition, saying the agency is not allowed to regulate gun cartridges and shells under federal law.
The environmental groups sued the EPA, but a federal appeals court on Tuesday rejected their claims.
