                    DEMOCRATS SIMPLY DID NOT LISTEN

  (Mr. ROSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ROSE. Mr. Speaker, our country is in an inflation crisis caused 
by the Biden administration's failed leftwing, progressive policies.
  We have families who can't find baby formula for their newborns, 
grocery stores with empty shelves, workers filling up their gas tanks 
for twice what they paid 2 years ago, and farmers paying triple for 
fertilizer compared to two harvests ago.
  H.R. 7606, the bill that passed the House last week, will do nothing 
to combat these crises in the immediate future. Instead, Congress 
should consider a bill introduced by the gentleman from Pennsylvania 
(Mr. Thompson), my friend and ranking member of the House Agriculture 
Committee.
  H.R. 8069, the Reducing Farm Input Costs and Barriers to Production 
Act, will work to immediately combat rising food and fuel costs and has 
the support from our farmers, ranchers, and producers.
  However, once again, Democrats passed a bill that doesn't fix our 
problems, nor does it increase our domestic food or fuel production, 
and they blame everything on Republicans. Let the record show we 
offered real solutions, and Democrats simply did not listen.
