                      BIDEN OUTRAGEOUS GAS PRICES

  (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. Mr. Speaker, Americans see firsthand 
Biden inflation at every turn and nowhere more than gas costs. The 
Biden failed policies are obvious at every gas station with prices up 
$1.50 per gallon over last year, an additional $20 per fill-up.
  The $3.5 trillion Biden inflation spending bill would make it more 
expensive to heat homes, drive cars, operate trucks, and keep the 
lights on. The Biden tax increase on natural gas alone would raise 
heating bills and destroy 90,000 jobs.
  The Energy Information Administration forecasts home heating costs 
this winter: Propane up 54 percent, heating oil up 43 percent, natural 
gas up 30 percent. The Democrat elite think they are smarter than 
anyone, and they believe Democrat voters are ignorant to believe that 
$3.5 trillion in spending costs zero.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected 
America for 20 years, as the global war on terrorism which now 
continues, sadly, from Afghanistan to America, as Biden ignored 
military advice, leading to 13 murdered marines.
