President Joe Biden, responding to a question on Thursday on when to push gun control measures, promised a series of actions to regulate the sale of firearms but said his next agenda item pertains to U.S. infrastructure. “All of the above, it’s a matter of timing,” he said in response to a question during his first press conference as president. He then spoke about infrastructure initiatives. Whether it will be through executive actions or Congress, Biden said, “All of the above.” Biden did not make any other comments about possible action on firearms during the news conference. The president then pivoted to infrastructure and promised details at an event in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There has been an increase in pressure on Biden to either take executive action or push congressional Democrats to pass legislation that would restrict firearms ownership in the wake of two mass shootings in Atlanta and Colorado in recent days.
