week, we extend our profound gratitude to the men and women in blue ho work every single day to keep us safe. i'm proud to represent my home of southwest washington which in my view boasts some of the finest police officers in the nation. over the years i have come to know many of them personally. these brave officers have stood strong in the face of physical danger as well as harmful political trends. i'm referring to the dangerous calls to defund police. i'm also talking about misguided laws that make it more difficult for them to do their jobs which is becoming a common occurrence in washington. our officers in southwest washington remain resilient to continue to answer the call to protect our is the citizens. to our southwest washington police officers know that we will always support you and appreciate your ability to keep our community safe. we humbly thank you for your service. thank you. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from tennessee seek recognition? >> address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is

recognized for one minute. >> madam speaker, as the father of two young boys, i am horrified by the shortage of baby formula that is quickly becoming a crisis across the country. i represent a mother from galatyn, tennessee, with an 8 monl little girl who can only tolerate hypoallergenic baby formula. recently the mother had to go to six different stores and call multiple others as far away as three hours to search for this formula for her baby. unfortunately president biden has no at-batses for new mothers and fathers struggling to find baby formula. i guess we'll have to now add this to -- add critical shortage of family -- baby formula shortages to the long list of other crises our president has caused but apparently can do nothing to resolve such as runaway, devastating inflation, massive federal debt, unacceptably high gas price, skyrocketing crime rate and open border that allows millions of illegal immigrants and tons of

deadly fentanyl into our country. madam speaker, the president must simply do better. thank you and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from georgia seek recognition? >> unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> madam speaker, i rise today to recognize bill cathcart and his tremendous impact on the savannah, georgia, community. after receiving his undergraduate degree, he went on to receive a masters and ph.d. from ohio state university. bill spent 24 years as wtoc's vice president and general manager. he has been instrumental in the savannah community, serving on georgia's first congressional service academy board, as past forward chairman of the museum of the might i eighth air force and longtime member of the

savannah area chamber of commerce. mr. carter: bill is the honorary commander of the airlift wing in savannah as well as several other honorary military statuses in savannah's community. in 2014 he was shreked to become the first civil cran aide to the secretary of the army for coastal georgia. thank you, bill, for all you have done to serve our community. thank you, madam speaker, and i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from louisiana seek recognition? >> address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. >> madam speaker, while we're grateful that the defund the police narrative seems to be fading for now, the damage to the perception of law enforcement will take years to correct. in 2021 law enforce. retirements were up 50%. resignations for up 18%.

nationwide, departments are short 7% of budgeted positions right now. these staffing shortages have dire consequences. many cities in 2021 recorded record homicides. madam speaker, this week is national police week. and during national police week it's so important that we celebrate our law enforce. heroes and highlight their importance to all of our communities. mr. johnson: those who wear the badge deserve the respect and support of every member of this congress. we should show it every week, and not just this week. i hope that we will. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: under the speaker's announced policy of january 4, 2021, the yell from louisiana, mr. johnson is recognized for 60 minutes as the designee of the minority leader. mr. johnson: thank you, madam

speaker. i ask unanimous consent that all members have five legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on the subject of my special order. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. madam speaker, the left has -- mr. johnson: madam speaker, the left has gone off the deep end. throwing molotov cocktails. what has riled them up? what has increased this spate of violence? are they protesting the skyrocketing inflation, rising price of gas for their cars, shortages? no. last week we learned of a draft supreme court opinion indicating the court may be prepared to finally, finally overturn roe v. wade. that's right. of all the very real problems in our country that could have sent them over the edge this is the one that has them animated in the streets and causing chaos

everywhere. it turns out that the possibility that individual states may again be allowed to restrain the killing of unborn children is of course what has sent the left into a tailspin. on our side, madam speaker, we understand the great nature of this supreme court leak and we pray that the justices will remain resolution in their convictions in this pressure campaign. but make no mistake. it bears noting that what spurs our democrat friends into furious action is not record inflation, not soaring illegal immigration, not empty store shelves, not americans just trying to make ends meet but abortion. just this afternoon our house democrat colleagues made time to march over to the senate to rally support for their bill allowing for abortion on demand until the moment of birth. if they think abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy is the key of rallying people back to their side i'm afraid their in for a rude awakening. i'm grateful to my many colleagues for joining us tonight to discuss the myriad

crises naysing our country that are taking a back seat to the democrat abortion ayen da. i'm main to yield first to my good friend, the gentleman from texas, dr. babin. mr. babin: thanks to my good friend, mike johnson of louisiana, for this special order, and how important it is. while we face countless crises all of which are getting worse by the day, it's not hard to stand up here and condemn, soundly condition democrat and criticize president biden and my colleagues on the other side of the aisle for the atrocious job that they're doing maniing the united states of america. however tonight i'm going to focus on one particular issue that literally is life or death for millions of future americans. in the coming weeks the supreme court of the united states will rule in the dobbs vs. jackson case on whether mississippi and other states like them can prohibit the murder of an unborn

baby after 15 weeks. thanks to modern science we can now see that at 15 weeks the humanity of an unborn child is completely, absolutely undeniable. at 15 weeks, babies can suck their thumbs and have fully formed noses, lips, eyes and eyebrows. and most of all they can feel pain. make no mistake, we have reached a pivotal moment in our relentless fight for life. the lives of the innocent, most innocent the democrats have embraced an anti-life agenda so radical, they're supporting infant side. even though 71% of americans support protections for our unborn. think about that. americans across the country are eagerly supporting babies, mothers and families. in 2019 alone, more than 2,700

pregnancy centers provided more than 1.85 million mothers in the united states with free maternal services. but par for the course, the party of science continues to ignore the science completely. last week's leak from inside the supreme court was a blatant attempt to obstruct deliberations and to intimidate justices, standing outside an intimidating justices -- and intimidating justices of the supreme court was illegal. it's appalling and dangerous and i hope the investigation into this breach of trust holds those responsible accountable for their actions to the very fullest extent of the law. that being said, the ongoing protest by pro-abortion activists outside the private homes of our supreme court justices, again, folks, is outright illegal. i'm calling on attorney general merrick garland to do his job and act immediately to enforce the rule of law.

if the leaked decision stands, the most innocent among us will finally have their voices heard. half a century of error will then be corrected and millions of lives will be saved. but no matter the outcome of this momentous case, i will never, ever stop fighting for the unborn. thank you, and i yield back. mr. johnson: thank you. i'm happy to yield next to the gentleman from wisconsin, mr. grothman. here he is. mr. grothman: now that we are

back in congress this week, i think it's time for all of us to share a little bit on what we learned when we were back in our districts and, given that my district has more manufacturing jobs than other districts in the country, i of course spent some time touring my manufacturing facilities and seeing what is going to become of the cost of american goods in the immediate future. there are some people who are claiming that this inflation is only something that arose out of recent developments, out of what happened in ukraine. that's not at all true. as we look here to my right, we see a graph that around the time of the american rescue plan, maybe the most irresponsible piece of legislation that's ever passed this house, we began to have m-2, a measure of the money supply, go up about 35% or 37% compared to the prior year. in the last big inflation in the

1970's it would go up #% or 9% -- 8% or 9% over the prior year. now we're at around 37%. look at this. and that was before the, again, preposterously big spending bipartisan infrastructure bill was passed. when you have that great of an increase in the money supply, in other words, when the federal reserve has to print that many -- that much money in a short period of time, what do you think will happen? any middle schooler could have told you when that american rescue plan passed that you were going to have hyperinflation and that's exactly what you're getting. when i tour my manufacturers, again and again and again i find the cost of metals or the cost of the materials that are going to go into the final price in a few months going up 300%, 400%, 500%. i am very afraid of what is going to happen in the future to our economy with such hyperinflation and i will point out, compared to a very large and controversial bill that we

passed last night with regard to the ukraine crisis, that bill was about 2% of the spending of the massive american rescue plan. and a small fraction of the bipartisan infrastructure bill. so i only hope that this body from here on out, beginning with the budget that's going to pass for the calendar year beginning october 1, finally stands up to president biden, finally stands up to the more extremists in the majority party, and finally says no to this spending. or we threaten to permanently ruin the american economy with all this money the federal reserve has to print to aswaj the human amount of spending that some members of this body want to undergo. thank you. mr. johnson: they have an

insatiable appetite for spending. the american people are just as upset as we are. a krrchtion nn poll -- a cnn poll just came out, only 23% of americans rate our economy as somewhat good. and that is a shocking decline of 14 points just since december. fox news poll says 67% of americans disapprove of biden's economic job performance. it's abysmal. mr. grothman: i hope we knock down that proposed budget for next year. how could anybody ask for so much more spending? thank you. mr. johnson: thank you. madam speaker, i'm happy to yield next from wisconsin, we'll go to the state of california, yield to the good gentleman from there, mr. garcia. mr. garcia: thank you, mr. chairman. madam speaker, some matters go beyond simple coincidences and some things are simply inexplicable and inexcusable. the blizzard of crises our nation has endured since january of 2021 cannot be attributed to

a simple string of bad luck. the reality is that these were intentionally indualsed crises by our elect -- induced crises by our elected officials in the white house and in this body. we've seen an unprecedented frontal assault on middle class americans and their security. this is the leading edge of the dismantling of the fabric of our nation that the far left has been asking for for years. with a slow boil over the last year, our nation has endured record high crime, record homicide rates, record high fentanyl deaths, record high illegal crossings across our borders, record debt, record high inflation, record high gas prices, interest rates have gone parabolic, affordability metrics are at all-time lows, the stock market is now on a straight-line downward trend, crushing our workers' retirement accounts and our supply chain challenges persist. madam speaker, these are just the manmade domestic challenges. on the world stage, our nation is now no longer the sole and

preeminent superpower. on the heels of the afghanistan debacle and the midst of a national security crisis where we've lost operational control of our southern border, and on the cusp of a recession and more war and conflicts, many are looking at the so-called leaders in d.c. as a source of the problem. and with good reason. we are a country now controlled by a single party who is flying us into the ground. we are in a nose dive. and any one of these crises alone could be fatal. but t the confluence of these challenges poses an existential throat our country and we need this body and this president to do better. madam speaker, i rise today to seek explanations. you see, over the course of the last year, i along with many americans have been scratching our heads, racking our brains as to why this administration is doing certain things. why does it choose to support those who want to defund the police? why is this administration so accommodating to china and iran? why does it support mayors and

district attorneys who give hope to the criminals rather than protecting the victims? why choose cheus to continue to spend -- choose to continue to spend recklessly, without any regard to our children's future? why does your party care more about the borders of other nations than other on you? -- than our own? and why is this administration focused on our military adopting policies instead of being able to win a war? and while i agree with very little from this administration, i do agree with one statement the president made last august. on august 15, just days before 13 americans were killed in afghanistan, our president said, i am president of the united states and the buck stops with me. indeed, it stops with the president. but we all end up paying for these mistakes, madam speaker. we pay for our record debt, our record spending owrks inability to look -- spending, our inability to look past petty politics. a party that no longer resembles the ideals inspired by president kennedy, a party that has become

hijacked by b.l.m. and special interests. hijacked by fear rather than a devotion to our beautiful constitution. and why does this administration continue to do the inexplicable and the inexcusable? madam speaker, you and i sit on opposite sides of the political aisle. but like passengers on an airplane, when we fly through a storm, that doesn't matter. we just want the pilot to be qualified and to get us through the storm. it doesn't matter if you're on the left side and i'm on the right side of the aisle. we all just want to get to our destination safely. and for the first time in my life, i am worried that there is no one in the cockpit qualified to fly this aircraft. and i know most americans share this concern. i have spent my life defending this beautiful country. since the age of 18 as a naval officer, i've been willing to give my life for this nation. and if i'm willing to die for it, i'm willing to work for it. and if i'm willing to work for it, i'm willing to do what's right for it. and in this mission, i'll never stop. but i expect the same from you, madam speaker. and i expect the same from our

president. and i can't understand why elected officials would choose to put our country in harm's way. it is only inexplicable and inexcusable. ours is a nation that deserves to be loved and not intentionally flown into the ground. she is a precious one, madam speaker, but she is not invincible. thank you, mr. chairman. mr. johnson: i thank you so much. our former "top gun" navy pilot did a great job describing our economy as in a nose dive. if only, if only we had a former fire chief that could describe the five-alarm fire that is america right now. oh, we do. he also happens to be a former mayor of miami. happy to yield next to the gentleman from florida, mr. gimenez. mr. gimenez: thank you, mr. chairman. madam speaker, from the covid-19 pandemic and russia's barbaric invasion of ukraine to the spikes of illegal immigration and illicit drugs flowing into our country, world events over the past few years have further underscored the importance of countries preserving their

national borders. when a state cannot control and secure its own border, it loses the ability to protect its people and its strategic interests. in order for a state to survive, secure borders are paramount. the current border policies in the biden administration allows for millions of unvetted, undocumented individuals to freely flow across our southern border. they allow acts of war to be played out by the cartels and the narco traffickers with hard, illicit, dangerous narcotics such as fentanyl, meth, haren and cocaine -- her win and he could -- heroin and cocaine to be transported across the country where they're killing thousands of our fillo countrymen. these failed -- fellow countrymen. these failed policies leave our citizens vulnerable. they leave our national security vulnerable. they are a total abdication of the president's duty as the leader of the united states,

whose prime responsibility is, after all, to protect the american people. instead of handling this border crisis, president biden and secretary mayorkas seem to be more interested in solving mexico's immigration problems. as a majority of my grants apprehended at our southern border are coming from other countries like guatemala, el salvador, honduras and all over the world. it makes absolutely no sense for asylum seekers to show up aught at our borders seek -- at our borders seeking refuge from their home countries. think about this logically. if a migrant is escaping their home countries because of horrible living conditions or other factors, shouldn't they be seeking asylum at the mexican border and waiting to go into mexico? instead, which is exactly what they're doing, instead president biden's weak and gutless policies gives mexico a free ride. by incentivizing them to pass their border security issues and responsibilities to the united

states. president trump had it absolutely right. we must bring back the remain in mexico policy and make sure mexico is doing its part in keeping their borders safe. customs and border protection has made clear what they need to secure our southern border. and by extension, protect the american people. we must move swiftly to finish constructing approximately 280 miles of the wall, and fortifying that barrier with bolstered technology, such as radar sensors, drones, surveillance towers. by strengthening our barriers, by strengthening our barriers, our law enforcement officials are equipped to protect unvetted undocumented individuals and curb the proliferation and stem the flow of illicit drugs.

and killing thousands, thousands of our american citizens. mr. president, the time has come for your administration to take the crisis at our southern border a serious national security threat, one that puts our families and communities and our country at incredible risk. no more hot air and useless speeches, time to get real on securing our border. mr. johnson: thank you for that clear message, we heard from border officials and said we lost operational. we have no border security at all and if you don't have safety or sovereignty and i yield to the gentleman from tennessee. >> i appreciate you yielding time. madam speaker, an unborn child is a human life. abortion ends that human's life.

as the father of two young sons and one who passed away in the womb, i know firsthand that all children's lives are very precious inside or outside the womb. unfortunately, members of the democratic party would rather ignore this fact and advocate for more access to abortions up until the moment of birth and even in some cases after the baby is born when the attempted abortion failed to kill the baby before it was actually born. because of this kind of extremism, millions of children will never get to walk this earth as their creator intended. their lives are being cut short by those who believe the ends justify the means. since the roev. weighed decision, those on the right side of history have worked in state legislatures and

congresses to secure the right to life. our constitution is under attack and the fundamental respect for the law has gone by the way side as a draft tied to one of the most consequential cases has leaked to the press. it begs the question, if the supreme court can't keep a secret, who can? i have no doubt that the bad actor violated the law. i led more than 20 house republican members of congress calling on the department ofjustice and f.b.i. to open a criminal investigation. after nearly 30 years as an attorney, i have never seen a more radical and unethical action take place in the legal arena. the leaker tended to undermine the duffings of power and influence the high court's decision and must be held accountable to the full extent

of the law. it is inexcusable that justices are facing protests that could turn violent and the reason nor abiding for their oath to interpret the law the way it was written. i will remind folks nowhere in the constitution does it enumerate a right to abortion. our declaration of independences says something, we are endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, life and liberty. and proponents prepare to do whatever it takes to have their way. some are calling to burn down the supreme court and the justice' homes and some members have called for expansion of the

supreme court, something that president biden said as recently as 2019 would be, and i quote, a very dangerous thing to do, unquote. the leak is a reminder to the american people that democrats have no desire to legislate under the parameters of our constitution. if left to their own designs, they will left at nothing that taxpayer-funded abortions up until and even after birth are a permanent reality, a reality that will come at the cost of millions of irreversible tragedies and act as a stain on this great nation until we right our wrongs and become a voice for the voiceless. thank you, chairman. mr. johnson: so well, my friend.

the sanctity and the states and the people will decide that issue. i'm happy to yield next to the gentleman from north carolina, mr. murphy mr. murphy: madam speaker, for the first time in this nation's history, the united states has surpassed over 100,000 drug overdosees and c.d.c. estimated 107,000 americans died. 15% increase over the year prior. disproportionately affecting african american-americans and other minorities. as a physician much more than 30 years, it is a tragedy that president awar on america that is fueling the crisis. fentanyl is more than 100 times more potent than morphine and they have become the leading

cause of death for adults. let us think about that for just a minute. the leading cause of death is not covid-19, not car accidents, cancer, but illicit fentanyl coming across our southern border. let us be clear, this is a national security threat. we do not operational control of the united states-mexico border. biden's war on america has invaded every town in this country and his policies are making it worse. this is a real and definite dereliction of duty by the president of the united states of america. he could fix this deadly nightmare overnight by re-instituting president trump's commonsense border policies. the american people are

suffering and dying because of this president's willful negligence. how could he he believe this is the right thing to do? madam speaker, joe biden is responsible for the fentanyl-induced deaths and he should be taken -- he should not be taken seriously because of this. he is being ignorant or he simply does not care about the american people, i yield back. mr. johnson: exactly right. and the other tragedy, the cartels are making billions of dollars on this, flooding it into our country and killing innocent americans. i'm happy to yield to the gentleman from indiana, mr. baird. mr. baird: i thank my colleague for holding this special order and i rise today to stand in support of our most important

and fundamental right, the right to life. in the 1970's, then senator biden said of roe versus weighed and he said i don't like the supreme court decision on abortion. i think it went too far. a decade later, he would sign a constitutional amendment that would allow states to overturn the supreme court ruling. thanks to the advancements of science and babies can feel pain at 15 weeks, we must support policies that support that protect the most vulnerable among us. i believe that life begins at conception and life is a miracle and should be enjoyed, celebrated and shielded. i would like to close by saying this. when we know better, we do better. now that we know better and

unborn babies feel pain. it's time we do better. i yield back. mr. johnson: and president biden was a whole lot more pro-life in the 1970's and 1980's. he said it went too far. and voted for the constitutional amendment for states to overturn that ruling. you know what he did? he issued a statement calling on statement to codify. what a tragedy. i yield to the gentleman from tennessee. >> i appreciate your stand on life. and it's heartfelt and i do appreciate it, brother. i want to address two points about the draft ruling that was intentionally leaked to the press. whoever leaked the decision, they are gutless and need to be

held accountable. two, the pro-abortion activists are lying about overturning the decision means. this leak was an intimidation and now the supreme court justices are dealing with an angry mob over a decision that was supposed to be confidential and if you check the date, it was not a recent draft. so this is obviously well planned. i know this is a controversial case. i feel strongly about it, too. it should be overturned but leaking a draft opinion is not the way the supreme court is supposed to operate. it is supposed to uphold our laws regardless of political drama here in congress. dragging the justices into the political chaos is unacceptable and i wrote to the director of the f.b.i. to have an

investigation. have yet to hear a response and this is another one of those instances. and here at the national level they continue to let us down. to my second point, the pro-abortion activists are screaming that this decision would eliminate abortions across the country that is not remotely true. overturning roev. weighed would leave those decisions to state governments. in some states the value of lives of unborn children would allow our lawmakers to protect the sweet little babies. in my home state of tennessee, this decision would activate trigger laws. and i believe currently in washington, d.c., it would still be legal if i understand the law correctly. in states that don't value the

lives of unborn children and celebrate this as a human right. overrule turning would overturn abortion and it would simply give state legislators more freedom. i promised i would protect life and i intend to keep that promise and hold the person who leaked the decision and i doubt the f.b.i. will lift anything to do about it. and i always keep fighting for the lives of the unborn and i thank chairman johnson. on this issue, madam chairman, he is exceptional and i thank him for that and i believe his gifts will be eternal for that. so i thank you, brother. mr. johnson: it's a critical issue that we believe to our core. happy to yield to the gentleman

from georgia, mr. clyde. mr. clyde: last week, a leaked draft opinion regarding the dobbs v. jackson women's case revealed that the u.s. supreme court to overturn. the 1973 decision that legalized abortion. once this is signed by the court, the cover of federal law over the murder of innocent babies will finally be removed. while millions of precious lives have been taken through the evils of abortion, this is a giant leap forward to protect the unborn and in light of this and the camping at this time of light, democrats' hysteria has gone off the rails. due to increased threats from the left, fences and barricades

had to be installed and justices had to receive additional security and justice alito had to be removed. while the white house refused to condemn protests, radical pro-abortion extremists violated federal law by organizing unruly demonstrations outside the justices' home. churches and despite fake news - attempting to down play the crime, an anti-abortion facility in wisconsin was arison attacked with a molotov cocktail over the weekend. what has sparked such outrageous acts of violence -- the threat of saving human life. that's right. it's the threat of saving human life. think about that for a moment. just the possibility that

abortion regulation will rightfully return back to the states, giving millions of innocent souls a chance at life, that enrages the left to the point of violence. it's sickening, unconscionable and down right evil. yet president biden wants to call republicans extreme? i'll tell you what's extreme, madam speaker. abortions on-demand, that's extreme. murder of the innocent unborn, that's extremely wrong. my colleagues on the left are big proponents of abortion. but when you look at the disproportional number of abortions in the minority communities, it becomes quite apparent that to them black lives matter, but only after they're born. this is the bottom line. life is our first and foremost fundamental right. fundamental, inalienable right. and as a proud pro-life american, i will never stop fighting to protect it. so i want end to with a thank you.

thank you to justices samuel alito, clarence thomas, neil gorsuch, brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett. thank you for defending the constitution and for standing for the right to life. thank you for finally putting an end to the lie of a supposed constitutional right to abortion. may the lord greatly bless you and bless your family and your family's family for generations to come for standing up for life. i yield back. mr. johnson: thank you, my friend, for that strong word. madam speaker, i'm happy to yield next to the gentleman from california, mr. lamalfa. mr. lamalfa: thank you again, mr. johnson. appreciate you leading this opportunity here tonight. so, we have april's consumer price index just having been recently released.

unsurprisingly it shows a lot of inflation. skyrocketing inflation. nearly every single american has been feeling that in their pocketbook. on the basics of life. especially since the last 15 months of president biden's policies have kicked into place. i guess what the price was though, is how bad the rate of inflation really. is inflation through the c.p.i. has increased 8.3% over the last 12 months. the biggest single year growth since 1984. combine that with the decrease of 3% in real wages under the biden era, and regular families are facing serious damage to their wallets and to their dreams. inflation is indeed a tax on every american and has been skyrocketing thanks to biden and democrats' out of control spending. inflation has increased every single month of the biden presidency. but first he claimed the high prices were transitory. secondly, then he blamed it on russia's invasion of ukraine. even though that was over a year into his term and prices were

already rapidly rising. then he actually pretended it didn't exist. while americans are suffering, he wanted to sweep the self--made prices under the rug -- self-made prices under rug. finally this week he said combating inflation is now his top priority. oh, but wait, it's the republicans' fault that it's so bad. this is under his party's rule here in washington, d.c. the economic crisis actually started his first day in office when he launched a full-fledged assault on domestic energy production. that catapulted energy prices. we know energy is tied to just about every aspect of our lives. from growing crops to delivering them to the store, from the minds, the mined products to materials we use every day, whether it's metals, electronics, what have you. batteries for the pie in the sky idea that we're going to have to convert into electric. and on and on.

electricity, fuel, are extremely important to our economy. yet they're doing everything they can to squash american-produced energy. we want to import all that too? so the pain of the gas prices have hit transportation, food, production, and, as we know, the grocery stores. with record partisan pil spending bills -- spending bills like the failed american rescue act and the build back better effort, inflation is crushing the american dream for many. we must address the root cause of biden inflation and indeed his policies. we must produce ample domestic oil to bring down the prices and help have our economy be sustained by our own energy. we are self-sustainable. we can also be helping our european allies instead of having them be dependent upon russian natural gas. how crazy is that? we see what the effects are for poland and we'll see it for germany if we don't turn the

tide. we can do that. we can be there for them. and we actually produce cleaner natural gas by far than russia does. so the evidence is all around us. expensive food, fuel, electricity, housing and even bare shelfs in our stores in the land of plenty. we see our small towns, their economies being devastated because the water is being taken away from farms and the high cost of doing business for driving tractors, combines, trucks, mining equipment, and our forests, which should be producing for us, our wood and paper products, instead are getting burned down due to the policies of inaction by forest service and others. we need to take the initiative and we need to turn back the biden plan which has been failing america and put an american plan forward that puts us first, that puts the people first, and production here for our own economy first. i thank you for the time. i yield back. mr. johnson: i thank my friend.

i think we're going to get that opportunity after this next election cycle and we cannot wait and it cannot get here soon enough. madam speaker, i'm happy to yield next to the gentlelady, my dear friend from illinois, mrs. miller. mrs. miller: thank you for hosting this hour. this week marks the national police week, where we honor those who keep us safe and remember those who sadly have been lost in the line of duty. this national police week, my republican colleagues and i are standing with all of law enforcement, including our u.s. border patrol. a country without a border is not a country at all and we will not stop fighting until our border is secure. to all our law enforcement officers, thank you for the sacrifices you make to protect our communities. americans appreciate you. unfortunately over the past couple of years, we have seen some democrats support the

defund the police movement and policies that are soft on crime. as a result, crime across the nation is on the rise and nine u.s. cities had a record breaking number of homicides in 2021. i want to thank and encourage others to thank all the police officers who protect and defend our communities every day. mr. johnson: thank you so much, my friend. it's been amazing to see the turn-about, those who are advocating for us to defund the police, they recognize the grave results of that and now they're on our side, aren't they? they're proclaiming that we need to fund more police and they're certainly right now. unfortunately we have to live with the results of those policy choices. madam speaker, i'm happy to yield next to the gentleman from pennsylvania, mr. keller. mr. keller: i thank the gentleman from louisiana. thank you for having this time. madam speaker, the biden administration spent the better part of last year trying to

convince american families facing higher prices that inflation was transitory. yet new inflation numbers show that the cost of everything is still on the rise. including gas, which just hit record highs this week. prices are increasing rapidly, at an unsustainable pace. but president biden isn't changing course. in fact, he said that his administration's policies help, not hurt, inflation. that's a bold statement for an individual that came to washington, d.c., when i was 8 years old. almost 50 years ago. that's a bold statement from a president that perpetrates big government spending and has done everything in his power to destroy american energy. to president biden, inflation is just a number. but for working american

families, it is the crushing result of this administration's failed policies. failed policies that must be overturned to get our nation back on the right track. that's why this week, along with 22 of my republican colleagues, we introduced a resolution calling for greater american oil and natural gas production. our resolution reaffirms that american energy is the answer to lowering inner costs, cushing inflation and putting -- curbing inflation and putting america first once again. during the state of the union, president biden stood right in this room and said it took, you know, we need a buy american, build american. i got news for the president. it takes american energy. it takes american energy because we do it better than anybody on the face of this earth. so, the american people, not president biden, have the capability and resolve to rebuild our economic engine. president biden must get onboard

with the american people. he must put the american people first. or get out of the way. thank you and i yield back. mr. johnson: thank you, my friend. from one energy state resident to another, we know and we can say clearly that energy security is national security. mr. keller: absolutely. mr. johnson: and this white house just doesn't get it. doesn't get it. thank you so much for reminding us of that. madam speaker, i am truly grateful again to my many colleagues who were here tonight from all across the country to join us as we discuss the importance over the battle of the sanctity of every human life. and the myriad number of crises facing our country because of these democrat policies that are plaguing every arena, every area of the economy, every part of the country, and every single policy issue. madam speaker, we cannot wait for an end to this and a change in the leverage of power in washington, and we do expect

that will happen in a big red wave in november. hopefully the country can survive until then. madam speaker, i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: members are reminded to refrain from engaging in personalities toward the president. under the speaker's announced policy of january 4, 2021, the gentlewoman from california, ms0 minutes as the designee of the majority leader. ms. chu: madam speaker, i ask unanimous consent that all members have five legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on the subject of my special order. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. ms. chu: today i rise in honor of norman y. mineta. an asian american pioneer, political giant and my dear

friend. norm was a trailblazing leader, often referred to as the god father of the asian american and pacific islander community. norm passed away last tuesday, may 3, at the age of 90. and our communities are mourning this immense loss. i owe norm so much. you see, he was the founder of the congressional asian-pacific american caucus over 20 years ago. which i have the privilege to chair right now. without norm founding kpac, we also would not have our sister organization, the asian-pacific american institute for congressional studies, which provides internships and fellowships to cultivate our next generation of aapi leaders in public service.

and we would not have so much of the critical infrastructure that organizes and holds our community together today. norm's story is so inspirational. it's a story of sacrifice and hardship. but also of perseverance and triumph in the face of great adversity. he was born to igrant parents from japan -- immigrant parents to japan who came to america for a better life. but during world war ii, when norm was only 10 years old, he and his family were rounded up, forced out of their home and sent to a japanese american internment camp after president roosevelt signed executive order 9066. due to the race and war hysteria, and racial prejudices, and failure of political leadership at the time, about 120,000 individuals of japanese ancestry were stripped of their

basic civil rights and incarcerated in desolate camps. to this day, the incarceration of japanese americans remains one of the most shameful chapters in our nation's history. despite the norm never lost faith in america. instead, he decided to join the army after graduating from berkley and served as intelligence officer in japan and korea. this strong draw toward public service never left him and began his public career serving on the san jose city council. with this election, he made history by becoming the first japanese-american to serve as a mayor of a may scror u.s. city. and ran for a congressional seat

and came from the continental u.s. where he served for 21 years. in congress, he spearheaded efforts to pass the civil liberties act which granted reparations to japanese-americans and founded a congressional asian-pacific-american caucus and he served as the caucus' first chair and made history by becoming the first asia yap-american to and presidential cabinet when president clinton selected to him to be the secretary of congress and he was appointed by president bush to be secretary of transportation and played a critical role in overseeing the critical response during the 9/11. norm was such an incredible

inspiration to many, including myself. i remember meeting norm when i was a elected official in local government and he was a congress member. he was so kind, so gracious and so encouraging. then he climbed to higher positions as cabinet secretary, not once but twice and i marveled that no matter how high the heights, he never stopped being kind, gracious and encouraging. then i was elected to congress and i got to intrlg act with him even more. i loved hearing his stories about his early days as an asian-american in congress and told me there were so few asian-americans and one day he tried to get a meeting of the

asian-american members at the white house and they asked, what group do you represent? and refused to meet. that's when he got the idea of starting the congressional asian-pacific-american caucus and as an official caucus, he got that meeting at the white house. we owe a debt of gratitude that he did to uplift the community and he always prioritized opening doors for future leaders. he showed us how much we could achieve and pulled us up with him. and norm especially valued mentoring students and interns who were interested in advocating for our community. there is no doubt that we are a stronger community and a

stronger nation because of norm's leadership. i am proud to be joined tonight by my colleagues who join me in honoring norm in this special order. at this time, i yield to my friend from california and second vies chair, representative mark takano. mr. takano: thank you, representative, chu. thank you for your very personal memories of norm ma netta. we knew norm in our special way and he was a very norman down to earth person. not infected by pa tomorrow ac fever and perhaps he never thought that someone might rise to become a president but was

able to focus his energy and attention to being a member of congress. he served here for 20 years, 20 extraordinary years and became chairman of the house transportation committee. he was a japanese-american pioneer and a great public servant and he left us earlier this week. i first met norman at a training conference in the 1980's and i'm getting old enough now where 1980's and 1990's blend together and hard for me to say which year of the 1980's, but i think it was the 1980's and it was an organization called leap.

and they held this leadership training conference and training potential candidates for office and norm showed up as a member of congress and gave of his time because he believed in mentoring people and he would be supportive of my first run for congress in 1992 and 1994. and he gave up generous amounts of his time and one time i was hanging out in his office and i think it was 1992, might have been -- i can't remember which run it was, but i realized that i was going to miss my flight because he was just so relaxed and he just spent hours with me talking and i had to actually leave the flight and i had to get my luggage sent after me

because i wasn't able to get my luggage together. but in 1994, his true crashing shown through when he called me at the very end of a very, very long day that i had been through. earlier in that day in 1994, i was outed on the front page on the newspaper as gay. and by evening time and this is in the days before the internet, the newspaper article had been faxed to washington, d.c., and he knew what was on my mind. and he called me that night. and he told me that he had spoken to the democratic congressional campaign committees and gotten assurance that the dccc would not diminish my support. he anticipated the fear that i

had about being abandoned and he promised that he would be steadfast behind me and you my third successful house and norm had to waiver from that promise he had from that. on january 3, 2013 when i entered the house chamber to take my oath office and i was standing to my right and i felt a tap on my shoulder and behind me was a voice that said, mark, norm mineta. how for thy itous could that have been that this wonderful man, this wonderful member of congress was the first person i would have a conversation with in the chamber and former

members are allowed back in the chamber and that was a special moment on my first day of office. there are many more stories i could tell about how he made -- how he brought me to see senator ino way before the election and it was my regret that he would pass away before i would take office. but norm was a friend and mentor. he had a profound impact on my life and so many other people, many who are in elective office. he just believed in cultivating and bringing up so other aapi's. he believed in cultivating younger people into opportunities and encouraged people to get in politics and

inspired japanese-americans to understand how political participation was to defend civil liberties for all americans and rooted in his own experience of what happened and my colleague judy chu recounted those experiences. he played a key role to pass the civil liberties act in 1987 and compensated japanese-americans and taught americans to teach americans. he was an early supporter to lgbtq you community and he persuaded the japanese-american citizens league to be the first nonlght bets to embrace same-sex united states.

the state of hawaii, which has a sizeable japanese electorate was the place where are same-sex unions were being taken seriously and that endorsement and norm played a key role in persuading those delegates to do the right thing. about at the same time norm introduced to one of his openly gay staffers and because chris became close to norm, i want to mention his name now bus i have learned that chris has sadly passed away and i know from norm's wife that chris' passing has opened after norm has left us. as transportation secretary during the 9/11 attacks he

grounded all commercial flights but he is credited by president bush by being a voice of restraint against any reprisals against muslim-americans. he one of the most important things about norm's experience is that sometimes we lose our souls as a nation. the notion of all equal under god sometimes disappears and 9/11 certainly challenged that premise. norm's example inspired me. i didn't want our country to do what happened to norm, unquote. norm channeled made america a better country. his public service career has left an enduring legacy and he will be missed but his contributions will not be forgotten. may he rest in peace, and thank

you, madam speaker, i yield back. ms. chu: thank you for sharing those wonderful memories and yield to my friend doris matsui. ms. matsui: thank you very much. i rise today in honor of my dear friend norman mineta who i feel like i have known almost forever. just a little piece of history, i remember when my late husband, bob matsui decided to run for congress. norm was the first one on the phone to bob saying, go for it. and first one to write a check to him. you remember those things. and he has been someone who has

always encouraged people all the way and never forgetting and my colleagues here, especially congressman takano mentioned, how he was impacted by norman mineta. norm's compassion nature spirit and hard work on the people of san jose and advocates for japanese-americans were evident to those who knew him. he simply made america a better place, a more hopeful place. we know the enormous impact he had across his career. his advocacy and compassion and legislative ac cue men. his leadership in both good times and bad. norm's life was full of trail-blazin
