BIDEN INFLATION TAX
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, inflation threatens
American families due to the out-of-control spending by President Joe
Biden.
Biden inflation directly impacts the day-to-day well-being of
American families. Inflation is currently rising at the fastest pace in
13 years. And Biden has proposed an irresponsible $3.5 trillion deal
that will increase taxes.
Last month, consumer prices jumped 5.4 percent. Gas prices are up a
huge 45.1 percent, and milk is up 5.6 percent. What Biden doesn't seem
to realize is that these costs negatively affect the lower and middle
class more than anyone else. Wasteful spending and taxes will only make
matters worse. Inflation is Biden taxation, and the American families
deserve better.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. God bless the
courageous citizens of Cuba standing up for freedom and liberty from
the failed socialist oppressors.
