BRING MEANINGFUL RELIEF FOR CONSTITUENTS
(Mr. OLSZEWSKI asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. OLSZEWSKI. Madam Speaker, it is now the fourth time I have come
to this floor with a poster to count the days. We are now 200 days into
this session of Congress and, sadly, I return with the same message. I
wish it weren't so.
I have scoured our voting record, trying in vain to find one vote,
just one, that would lower costs for American families. The closest I
found was a bill that would improve price transparency for concert
tickets, but nothing to actually address price gouging.
When it comes to the most basic of necessities, there hasn't been one
serious effort from House leadership to lower costs. Instead, President
Trump and this GOP majority are doing the opposite, driving up costs
through tariffs. The big, ugly budget makes things even worse by ending
food programs and causing both healthcare costs and utility bills to
skyrocket.
I again call on House leadership to bring legislation to this floor
that delivers meaningful relief to all our constituents.
