                              BIDENFLATION

  (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, costs for everyday 
products and services continue to rise, and American families are 
suffering. Gas costs have doubled under Biden, reaching the highest 
level ever for the price of gas today.
  In the last year we have all experienced price increases for everyday 
items, including: eggs up 22 percent, chicken up 16 percent, bacon up 
17 percent, milk up 14 percent, roasted coffee up 14 percent, and 
breakfast cereal up 12 percent.
  It is not uncommon for a can of soup on the shelf to be marked at 65 
cents, but at checkout, it registers $1. A Dollar Store had all 
merchandise for $1 until Valentine's Day, but now all merchandise is 
$1.25.
  Due to policies pushed by Biden and Democrats, everyday families are 
left to suffer the effects. America should resume the Trump policies of 
all-of-the-above energy.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops who successfully protected 
America for 20 years in the global war on terrorism as it continues 
moving from the Afghanistan safe haven to America.
