                                TAX DAY

  (Mr. ROSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ROSE. Madam Speaker, Monday of last week was liberals' favorite 
holiday: Tax Day--which usually serves as an annual reminder of just 
how big the government has gotten.
  However, instead of paying taxes on only one day of the year, 
Americans are being forced to pay an invisible tax every day this year: 
inflation--which is a constant reminder of the cost of Big Government 
and big deficit spending.
  Make no mistake, President Biden's and congressional Democrats' 
willingness to borrow trillions of dollars to pay for ever-growing 
wasteful government programs has caused record-high inflation. Prices 
at the pump and at the grocery store were already skyrocketing well 
before Vladimir Putin's evil invasion of Ukraine.
  Unfortunately, the Biden administration wants to double down on these 
disastrous, inflation-inducing spending bills. His budget proposal 
calls for shelling out $73 trillion over the next 10 years and would 
only add to the pain we all feel when we reach for our pocketbooks. 
Tennesseans can't afford another year of one-party Democratic control 
of Government.
