                      CREATING A BALANCED ECONOMY

  (Ms. BROWN of Ohio asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. BROWN of Ohio. Madam Speaker, when President Biden took office, 
we wasted no time getting to work to rebuild a devastated economy.
  From the Build Back Better Act to the American Rescue Plan, we have 
taken bold steps to make possible the incredible economic progress we 
see today. Progress that made the United States the first major economy 
in the world to recover and exceed prepandemic levels of its GDP, and 
2021 saw the most jobs created in American history, while keeping 3.7 
million children out of poverty.
  Whether it is more good-paying jobs or the cost of groceries and gas, 
our goal remains the same, to create a balanced economy so that 
Americans can thrive.
  Together with President Biden, we are fighting every day to make it a 
reality.
