Biden won't end fracking

Biden couldn't end fracking even if he tried . E&E News
He says he doesn't want to. Perhaps just as importantly, he can't, even if he is elected president. A Biden administration could make it more difficult, certainly. But presidents and agencies such as EPA cannot simply decide to ban fracking everywhere. If Biden, the Democratic Party's nominee, did want to ban use of the oil and gas process — and he says loudly now that he doesn't — he would need to get Congress to agree.

If fracking was banned, U.S. oil and gas production will fall rapidly. Transportation fuel prices would double and then triple. Home utility bills would soar. Voters would be pissed and even Republicans might riot.
