                    AMERICA DESERVES ENERGY FREEDOM

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Madam Speaker, the American people are asking one simple 
question: Why does the Biden administration hate energy freedom in 
America?
  They have asked that question every time they have gone to the gas 
station and seen prices skyrocketing. Now, they are asking that 
question as this administration is falling to its knees and begging 
Iran for a nuclear deal. Sacrificing our geopolitical leverage by 
appealing to our enemies is appalling, and it is the last thing that 
should ever be considered.
  Madam Speaker, this administration would rather be awarded a 
participation trophy than dig in and fight to put American interests 
first.
  That mentality is bankrupting our great country, and we have been led 
into a political minefield. It is a display of pure weakness and an 
absolute disgrace.
