                    PROTECTING HOME APPLIANCE CHOICE

  (Ms. LEE of Florida asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. LEE of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to state my support for 
H.R. 7700, the Stop Unaffordable Dishwasher Standards Act, and H.R. 
7637, the Refrigerator Freedom Act, which passed the House this week.
  Since his first day in office, President Biden has repeatedly 
advanced burdensome rules, regulations, and mandates that have made 
Americans' lives more difficult and caused prices to skyrocket. Across 
the board, prices are up 20 percent because of President Biden's failed 
and inflationary policies.
  Families in Florida cannot afford Bidenomics. House Republicans are 
fighting to protect families from burdensome mandates, safeguard 
consumer choice, and defend cost-effective energy solutions.
  That is what these important bills will do. President Biden's war on 
everyday household appliances only hurts hardworking Americans and 
small businesses. People in Florida, not bureaucrats in Washington, 
should be able to decide what appliances they want in their homes.
  These bills will protect affordability and choice, allowing all 
Americans the ability to make the right decision for themselves and 
their families.
