DEMOCRATS ARE LOWERING COSTS FOR AMERICAN FAMILIES
(Ms. GARCIA of Texas asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. GARCIA of Texas. Madam Speaker, I rise to celebrate House
Democrats' efforts to lower costs for working families. Democrats fight
for families over politics.
As we know, Putin's cruel war on Ukraine has caused the price of
goods to increase. Instead of playing politics and pointing fingers as
extreme MAGA Republicans have done, House Democrats have delivered
results for the American people.
Democrats simply passed the Lower Food and Fuel Costs Act, the
Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act, and the Affordable Insulin
Now Act to lower the costs of goods, gas, and insulin for all
Americans.
On top of that, yesterday, the House passed the CHIPS and Science
Act, a strong bill that will invest in lowering costs for hardworking
American families and end our country's dependence on foreign
producers.
You see, Madam Speaker, Democrats are here to deliver for the
American people. We are putting people over politics.
