FAMINE, BLACKOUTS, AND RATIONING
(Mrs. MILLER of Illinois asked and was given permission to address
the House for 1 minute.)
Mrs. MILLER of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, by using diesel-powered
equipment, nitrogen, and other fertilizers, American farmers feed our
Nation and are the number one exporter of food worldwide.
My fellow farmers and I are alarmed because Joe Biden and his green
bad deal team are in the process of creating a food crisis.
Radical leftists will destroy farms, especially family farms, with
attacks on fertilizer and livestock. The leftists are pushing to
replace the farmland we need for food with solar panels that are
terrible for the environment and made in China.
Without farms, people starve. Radical leftists are causing famine,
blackouts, and rationing in other countries. We cannot let them control
our food production.
