                             SUPPLY CHAINS

  (Ms. BLUNT ROCHESTER asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. BLUNT ROCHESTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of the 
bipartisan supply chain subtitle found in the House-passed America 
COMPETES Act.
  We have all heard from our constituents over the last several months 
about the impact that inflation has had on households and businesses. 
We also know that a key reason for rising prices on critical goods is 
our supply chain instability. The supply chain subtitle in the America 
COMPETES Act will strengthen our supply chains and ultimately tackle a 
root cause of inflation.
  It is vital that this subtitle is preserved through the negotiations 
of the America COMPETES Act as we build a better America. This is about 
creating good-paying union jobs, protecting our national security, and, 
ultimately, protecting the pocketbooks of the American people. Let's 
get it done.
