                   SEC'S PROPOSED CLIMATE CHANGE RULE

  (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, today, I rise today to bring attention to 
President Biden's Securities and Exchange Commission's proposed climate 
change rule.
  As Tennesseans suffer from the impacts of record-breaking inflation 
that has driven the cost of almost everything through the roof, 
President Biden and his SEC are trying to implement a regulation that 
will make it harder and more expensive to produce the food and fiber 
that feeds the world.
  We saw just last week that inflation is showing no signs of slowing 
down. The climate change rule proposed by Biden's SEC will only make it 
worse, as the farmers and ranchers who work so hard to feed us will 
spend copious amounts of time, effort, and money to comply with this 
rule, if it is even possible.
  Biden's SEC has clearly overstepped its bounds, as Congress has never 
given them the authority to regulate carbon emissions. If President 
Biden were serious about lower prices, he would immediately hit the 
brakes on this proposed rule.
