Last week, as the House of Representatives stood in session, Nancy Pelosi and progressive Democrats continued to dismiss the severity of the grueling gas and fuel crisis our nation is experiencing. Last week, the average price of diesel in Florida reached $5.639—surpassing the national average of $5.540. As our national economy already suffers from record prices across the board coupled with runaway inflation, soaring gas and diesel prices will only spiral our economy downwards. As President Biden and the White House play the inflation blame game, the American people know the truth: most Americans place the responsibility for record-high gas prices on President Biden's anti-American energy agenda. Bidenomics and this administration's refusal to address rising inflation and the energy crisis are directly responsible for the record prices impacting fixed-income seniors and working-class Americans. Rather than reverse course and uplift American energy production, this administration remains committed to reducing U.S. production capacity, increasing our reliance on oil from foreign adversaries, and limiting domestic oil and gas leases. Gas prices have increased over 50% since Joe Biden took office, and his lack of action proves he has no concern for the financial impact of his policies. I remain committed to fighting these radical policies that burden Americans and negatively impact our economy.

This common-sense legislation seeks to combat wasteful spending while simultaneously condemning Biden’s open-border catastrophe.

While Americans face unprecedented prices in every facet of their daily lives and parents desperately search shelves for baby formula, the DEMs are focused on relitigating 1/6. The American people are tired of these political games.

Last week, I joined my Republican colleagues for a press conference highlighting the baby formula shortage and this administration's lack of action.
The Biden-Harris administration does more to support ending pregnancy on-demand than supporting efforts to keep babies alive by addressing the baby formula crisis.
Republicans are calling for the administration to take action, America’s babies can’t wait any longer.

Last week's CPI data confirms what nearly every American feels in Biden's America—everything is more expensive.
This administration says their plans will only 'tax the rich and 'make them pay their fair share,' but everyone is paying more under their policies.

Americans know the truth: Joe Biden is a disaster of epic proportions.

ICYMI: Last week, I introduced the "No More Phones Act", which prohibits U.S. government officials from using taxpayer funds to provide cell phones to illegal immigrants.
Under the guise of Biden’s so-called ‘leadership,’ this admin has excessively wasted taxpayer funds by routinely providing cell phones to illegal immigrants—which are more than likely to be disposed of at a later date to avoid government detection.
Read the article below for more details on this legislation, the border crisis, and how I'm fighting to protect our national security.
