00:00Madam Speaker, in January of 2021, the average price for a gallon of gas was $2.39 nationally.
00:11Today, it's $3.49.
00:14These high prices are a direct result of Biden administration policies.
00:20Tennessee families are not only paying more to drive to work and take their kids to school,
00:25they're also paying more to power their homes.
00:29Since President Biden took office, the average cost of a kilowatt of power is up 30%.
00:35This is a direct result of the regulatory war being waged on domestic oil and gas production
00:42by the Biden administration.
00:44The current administration has taken more than 200 actions, all aimed at making American
00:50energy production more difficult, including killing the Keystone Pipeline on day one.
00:57Madam Speaker, the American people are tired of footing the bill for the Green New Deal
01:01agenda.
01:02Let's get our nation's energy policy back on track so our families are better able to
01:07fill their gas tanks and pay their electric bills.
01:11Thank you, Madam Speaker, and I yield back.
