BIDENOMICS FAILS FAMILIES
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, the failed policies of
Biden and Democrats are costing American families over $11,400 more a
year to buy the basics. The dollar stores I shop at are now $1.25.
When Biden took office, inflation was just 1.4 percent. Since then,
inflation has risen by 17.2 percent. Over the last year, families are
paying 20 percent more for car insurance, 19 percent more for frozen
juice, 11 percent more for beef steak, 10 percent more for
transportation, and 7 percent more for baby food and formula.
House Republicans, led by Speaker Mike Johnson, will continue to
fight to pass legislation to reduce inflation and create jobs.
In conclusion, God bless our troops who successfully protected
America for 20 years as the global war on terrorism continues moving
from the Afghanistan safe haven to America with Biden open borders for
terrorists.
It is sadly clear that there will be more 9/11 attacks across America
imminent in our country as warned by the FBI. Families need a rally
point now for safety when communications are cut.
