AMERICANS ARE FEELING THE PAIN
(Mr. WILLIAMS of Texas asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute.)
Mr. WILLIAMS of Texas. Madam Speaker, America is in the midst of an energy and supply chain crisis, and President Biden is nowhere to be found.
Instead, this week he will be jetting off to Europe for a climate conference to brag to our European allies about how much he is destroying America's energy economy.
In the past few months in office, President Biden canceled the Keystone pipeline, which killed over 11,000 American jobs and paused oil and gas leasing on U.S. lands and waters. The consequences of his policy decisions have been dire for hardworking American families.
The numbers don't lie. Home heating costs are projected to rise by as much as 54 percent. The national average for a gallon of gasoline reached $3.38, and U.S. households are on track to spend $19 billion more on energy by 2030.
Instead of working on bipartisan climate solutions, Democrats are more focused on implementing their radical Green New Deal policies and making us less energy independent.
From increased costs at the pump to heating bills, Americans are feeling the pain of President Biden's anti-energy policy in their wallets. The bottom line is socialism just does not work.
In God we trust.
