US Debt Ceiling Crisis: Biden can end the crisis using the 14th amendment

 14th Amendment, this is the power using which President Biden can increase the debt ceiling or eliminate it completely

what is 14th amendment

  This is the power that President Biden can use to increase the debt ceiling or completely eliminate it, and no force can stop him from doing so. 66 Democrats of the House of Progressives advised President Biden in writing to use his constitutional right given in the 14th Amendment and save the country from an economic catastrophe by breaking the bonds of Republicans.

Now the question is that when the Constitution itself has given such a huge power to the President, then why doesn't Biden use it. Even after so many months of negotiation, if the setting does not sit with the Republicans, then what will happen in the next 4-5 days.

The 14th Amendment was passed during the Civil War, it is known as the provision that gave citizenship to enslaved people, but it also added one thing, according to which the validity of America's public debt, which was legally received, that question will not be raised.'

President Biden does not seem very enthusiastic about the 14th amendment, he says that this amendment can definitely give him unilateral rights and can also eliminate the debt limit, but he is not thinking about it. One of the few bad things about this 14th amendment is that it has never been used in this way, nor has it ever been deeply debated. Biden feels that this amendment is so complicated that it can be immediately challenged in the court. Once the matter goes to the court, it is difficult to come to a decision till the deadline of debt ceiling, due to which the crisis may deepen further.

14th amendment has been in controversy

Although the 14th amendment has always been in controversy, it has been debated many times. Many experts believe that the President has no unilateral right to use the 14th Amendment. It does not allow the President to override a law passed by Congress regarding the debt ceiling. The US Constitution entitles Congress to both borrow and spend.
