FAKE HANDCUFFS WON'T SOLVE AMERICA'S PROBLEMS
(Mrs. BOEBERT asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Mrs. BOEBERT. Mr. Speaker, fake handcuffs won't close the southern
border. Fake handcuffs won't lower gas prices, curb inflation, harden
the supply chain, put baby formula on our shelves, deter Russia, or fix
our broken and weak reputation across the globe.
Mr. Speaker, fake handcuffs won't fix our education system, protect
our students from CRT and grooming, or create opportunities to lift
communities out of poverty.
Fake handcuffs won't increase domestic energy, increase recruitment
for our military--go woke, go broke--or solve a single problem that the
American people actually care about.
Mr. Speaker, fake handcuffs make for a good photo op, but they don't
benefit the American people. Fake handcuffs only benefit those who
pretend to wear them.
Mr. Speaker, this body should be delivering solutions for the
American people not with fake handcuffs but without restraint.
