mr. grothman: i ask unanimous consent to speak for a minute. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute. mr. grothman: not a lot has been said about the conflict in ukraine right now but that doesn't mean we shouldn't -- we should take our eye off the ball. there is a division, i think, in elected officials twoan two groups and it's important for the press to identify which one of these groups has the upper hand. not only in congress but in the biden administration. some people feel that it would be good to wrap up this war. including me. ukraine has the second lowest piert rate of any sizable country in the world. and the population of ukraine has sunk about 5% in the last few years. russia also has a low birth rate and is having a lot of people leave their country.

so we have two countries that should be primarily concerned about keeping the few young people they have alive rather than engaged in a war. for that reason, i would like to believe that if an offramp is provided for mr. putin, we could end the war before we have more people dying. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. mr. grothman: thank you. i would like to ask the press corps to weigh in a little bit and find out where the biden administration stands on this. thank you. the speaker pro tempore: without objection, the title of h.r. 4176 is amended. under the speaker's announced policy of january 4, 2021, the gentleman from arizona, mr. schweikert is recognized until 10:00 p.m. as designee of the minority leader. mr. schweikert: thank you, mr. speaker pro tem. just baas we're doing some

organization, because we're up against the tyranny of the clock, i'm going to yield as much time as he may consume to my friend from west virginia, mr. mooney. mr. mooney: thank you. as a competitive college rugby player at dartmouth, i picked up a love for the game of rugby. i continue to enjoy watching the sport as a member of the u.s. congress. i proudly serve as co-chair of the congressional rugby caucus and i'm honored to be an advocate for the rugby world cup. i'm thrilled to rise to celebrate that the united states has been named the host site of both the 2031 men's rugby world cup and the 2033 women's rugby world cup. a monumental accomplishment that brings the third largest sporting event in the world to our shores. earlier this year my caucus co-chair, democrat eleanor holmes norton, and i introduced a bipartisan concurrent resolution to recognize and support the efforts of u.s.a.

rugby and its partners to bring upcoming rugby world cup tournaments to the united states. rugby is one of the fastest growing sports in the united states with more than 100,000 u.s.a. rugby members playing in over 2,500 clubs nationwide. the united states possesses all the necessary state of the art infrastructure in its stadiums and potential host cities to ensure that the tournaments set a new standard of quality, comfort, security and safety for players, fans and sponsors. the eventual location of the u.s.-based rugby world cup events will be chosen from a group of over a dozen cities in the united states. rugby is about so much more than the tailgating and tackling. at its core, rugby teaches camaraderie, resilience and respect for the opposition. it is also a sport with massive international reach. with rugby boasting 405 million fans across the globe, the men's

rugby world cup has become among the most popular sporting events in the world. i congratulate all the hardworking individuals at u.s.a. rugby that spent a huge amount of time and effort on the lengthy and involved bid process. i'd also like to recognize the efforts and vision of the leadership from the world rugby and the world rugby council. this moment marks a pivotal turning point for the sport of rugby in the united states and around the world. this will be the first time a men's rugby world cup has been held in north or south america. a new hosting concept has been put in place as the united states stages consecutive mens and women's events with the same organizational structure. a projected 4.1 million fans will attend both the mens and women's world cup events in the united states. recent rugby world cup tournaments have brought more than 242,000 international fans from around the world into the

host countries and seen more than 1.7 million spectators flock to the stadiums generating significant revenue at the local and national level. u.s.a. and world rugby will now lead a multiyear effort to build anticipation for the 2031 around 2033 while developing infrastructure to guarantee successful tournaments. additionally, u.s.a. rugby will use the next decade to drive significant investment in the game at the youth level, increase access to and diversity in rugby, take rugby to the next level at the high school and college levels, and grow u.s.a. rugby membership to 450,000 members. bringing this event home is a great news for our country and for the future the great sport of rugby in our nation. thank you to the gentleman from arizona for yielding that time and i yield back to the gentleman from arizona. mr. schweikert: thank you, mr. mooney. mr. speaker, we're going to -- i'm going to try something tonight because i'm very, very

concerned this place isn't paying attention to the numbers and how much trouble i believe we're in. and my argument -- my thesis is very simple. if i'm wrong, i'm wrong. but if i'm right and this place didn't prepare because of the numbers we're seeing, the damage to people, the damage to economics, the damage to the country, the damage to just our future, we're not taking it seriously enough on how the numbers are eroding and how fast, how fast the numbers are eroding around us economically. now originally this was going to be a one-hour presentation. i now look like i have 22 minutes because of the tyranny of the clock. so i will try not to go too fast and i promise i'll dispose with some of the boards and as always wave at me if i start rambling at high rates of speed. this is our baseline.

the problem is this chart is now a year and a half old and the numbers are much worse. the reality, 29 years from now, c.b.o., this isn't some offgroup, this is our congressional budget office, functionally says we have $112 trillion, my back of the napkin says $120 trillion of public libor roed debt in today's dollars. not inflated dollars. functionally 75% of that debt is medicare. 25% is social security. the rest of the budget is in balance. what happens to medicare particularly when you start having inflation like we do? and i represent a district that's had over 11% inflation. i represent the district with the highest inflation in america. so let's actually start to walk

through what many of the experts are saying. remember, i'm trying to make a very simple point here. i'm worried about my country. i'm worried about our debt and the ability to pay and it skyrocketing and then the cascade effect of how many people are getting poorer. remember, in the first 15 months of democrat control here, americans are dramatically poorer today than they were a year ago. so let's actually walk through this. when larry somers, when i'm coming to the floor using quotes from larry somers, mr. speaker, mr. speaker, the house is not in order. the speaker pro tempore: the house will be in order. the house will be in order. mr. schweikert: thank you, mr. speaker.

sorry about that. sometimes when you're doing this at high rates of speed and people watch make not realize this building echoes like crazy. you've got larry somers, in order to do what's nest to stop inflation, the fed is going to raise interest rates enough that the economy will slip into recession. that's democrats, up until he had telling heresy on deems $1.9 trillion last year, up until that moment he was deems favorite economists. now he's basically telling us, we have structurally built in so much inflation, we're going to have to have the federal reserve force us into recession. do you know what happens to people, what happens to poor people, the working middle class, the working poor when you're in a recessionnary cycle? and how many years it takes for the public to get their lives back? the economy is heading for a hard landing.

we're now starting to see over and over and over the very economists that a month ago were saying we might be able to negotiate a soft landing, oh, we may just tip a little bit of growth and unemployment and come back. and now those same economists a month later are saying, no. we're heading toward a hard landing. we're going into recession. by the love of the dear lord, i hope they're wrong. but if they're right, have you seen a single thing this body has done to prepare? the u.s. economy is heading for a hard landing. and this one is important. we've got to understand. we're starting to see numbers now that -- and we had a member of the majority here i think a couple of days ago come and they threw out, oh but there's all this excess money in people's savings accounts.

that isn't true anymore. you do understand, the personal savings rate has plummeted from 26.6% a year ago, functionally a year ago, to 4.4% in april. and it continues to fall. and understand that personal savings rate of 4.4% is below, is below where we were before the pandemic. if we start to hit recession right now, our brothers and sisters out there don't have that cash reserve in their bank accounts. do you understand the concept of fragility? and now we actually start to see the other thing that really genuinely terrifies me. we're going to do a couple of slides on. this i know i'm going fast. we're up against the clock here. we have a mandatory shut down in about 20 minutes. treasury yields are really starting to decline. and you got to understand, we

basically had budget projections, congressional budget office and others, who had been basically building analysis of what will the debt look like? and they were using remarkably historically low interest rates. a year ago, we had expert after a year ago we had experts, we are going to be in historically low interest rates and more like japan and turns out, they are wrong. remember the previous slide. the give-aways and we should be retaining, it's gone. the savings are gone. and now we are going into an interest-rate cycle and treasury to attract and if you are

looking at this. what happens if you are u.s. sovereign debt. and 30-year run and 2% higher than what c.b.o. modeled last year and two points and i believe the mathis every dollar of text receipts, tax revenues. there is no more government. do you understand we have do to ours. the average interest rate and i know this is a little heart fer hard to read and go back to the 1960's and 1970's, this was not

normal. god for dhep bid d.m. anand: then running 30 trillion of debt, do you understand how the less 1%, we want -- there is no money and you saw the first board that said the massive short dwhrep fall in medicare. medicare is a general fund expenditure and 20% is part a trust fund and that is gone in five years. and it has begun and the other thing it's more than what we bore today and i didn't by that pored and i should have that has to be refinanced and you had to

refinance. and every dime is sit. and the higher and couple and this is functioning nine budget years now. if we think where we think it is going, public high held tebt, 1 #% of g.d.p. and most of this movement as you start to see this movement it is the financing cost because the real explosion of our demographic spending and 65 and older, that baby beamer has begun and starts to take off.

at the very time, we are pushing 126th of g. and it is this cycle. democrats did something terrible and didn't listen to their economists and people and now we are paying the price. and if you are trying to save for retirement and buy your first house, there is a technical term for it, you are screwed because that and if you are a saferrer. your savings today are about 7% less valuable than it was a year ago. those of you who want to retire,

have you thought about if you put it in bonds or savings accounts is and if purchasing power is less today, if this continues for a couple of years, do you understand how many more years you have to work d.m. anand: understanding how much you have to help your kids. this is not a game. two weeks ago and we tried to do some of the math of the members will record their votes by electronic device and if the current and here's what happens, it falls and what happens to the call, the cola and social security never guess

close and that 20% co-pay and health care inflation is doubled the c.p.i. rate and pay that which were looking at math that you double the number of seniors. has anyone here want to dig into that math and understand this is not a game? i know there is a desperate attempt, owe, this is pause of the war in ukraine, no, it's not. and realm, much of this inflation was built much before the war in ukraine and you see it in these numbers. by the end of 2021.

and before ukraine's incraigs, it climbed to 856 billion to 28% a.m.ized increase in the fourth quarter and people were borrowing on their credit cards so they the way they were consuming. savings rates have collapse and credit card debt explode and it collapsed and i can't using my savings. but this is going right now. where is the concern. does anyone concern what is

going on outside the walls of in building. this is a hard landing and same thing by other sources talking about the credit card debt and the collapse of savings rate. credit card balances once again, real question from other sources this is a real problemf we were in a tom of prosperity. and i see these are as fine times. have they hos their minds and economic journal to say things are fine and seeing credit card and interest rates going up and what it is going to go up in the

finances of this government and the fact of the matter is we got the senate and couple of democrats may have saved the country, hard to say that to stop the and when you start seeing numbers that if the democrats' packallying and $17 trillion tron to 4 # trillion by the end of the decade and if this is the and the absolute, absolute and we have shop it rnghts it is all paid for mentd wasn't even close.

and we used fair math and talk about recovering where they were going to slow down the economic growth. and now you see my fear for the country. what happened to the projected federal death and i know quiem sounding like a an accountant on steroids and we understand we are not paid to stand by these. but god, that seems to be what we do. and let's come here for just one moment. just functioning. and the 30 years, 40 years,

up-and-down and we are at 200 of gd -- g.d.-p? if we are above normal. does anyone this and people one from the u.s. dollar dn poise possible of u.s. debt and the dispope quap and run these levels of debt. we are heading of # 26% and that is publicly bored money and

social security and to a 27% cut and so we have haven't to payments of doctors and hospitals. this is not a game and all this is going you up and they didn't know, maybe we can sit them in the heurs going over the math and the mathis two times a year. and here's one of the things that terrifies me. and thinks nt long-term but baifngly and we start to think of qua 2% change and that 2% is

in the and that adds 13.4 trillion trillion debt and this is the marginal chart and i have to have a chart. and we will be financing the debt tay we are financing. we be financing our and now the cruelty. mr. speaker, may i ask, can you tell me how many minutes i have? the speaker pro tempore: minute and a half nay. >> thank you. this is the crueltiy now to poor people to the working poor and

hardworking class and you say and i forgive the call rs and if we hit the 2% in the federal reserve, this here, is where we are annual idessing and 7.6 and it means the 100 you had in 202022. and a decade. that $#00 if we stay at this rate, you have lost half of its value and you have saved and saved and saved. and if the current inflation environment were to hang around for decades, ha, what is it for

two years and doing it for two years and you hos almost a quarter and come and that out you want to ire out and do you understand how the do you understand how the difference of your earning power changed to make up for the difference of the loss of the value? and i represent a community that's going through 11% inflation rates. and then the last one in the last how many seconds i have, please, please, someone hire an economist to talk to the white house. a gas tax holiday, i mean, you can hear the economists rolling on their backs laughing right now. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. mr. schweikerter
