                          CRISIS AFTER CRISIS

  (Mrs. LESKO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mrs. LESKO. Madam Speaker, the Biden administration and Democrats are 
causing one crisis after another, whether it is the disastrous 
withdrawal from Afghanistan; whether it is open border policy where 
caravans are coming here; whether it is increasing gasoline prices at 
the gas pump, increasing grocery prices, a shortage of goods so that we 
can't even get gifts at Christmas. Now the Biden administration and the 
Democrats want to pass a natural gas tax, which will cause heating 
prices and electricity to skyrocket.
  Yet, at the same time that he wants to decrease natural gas in 
America, he is calling on OPEC to increase natural gas so that we can 
rely on it here in America. This makes absolutely no sense to me. It is 
as if he wants to hurt everyday Americans.
  Madam Speaker, I object to these policies, and I hope that my 
Democratic colleagues do, too.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are once again reminded to refrain 
from engaging in personalities toward the President.
