Political Quotes

“Passing the Don Young Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2022 was an important step in addressing the ongoing economic crisis facing our country. This legislation includes my bipartisan proposal to establish a task force to address the ongoing port backlog at the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. These ports move 40 percent of all shipping containers entering the U.S. and are major ports of entry for California's oil supply. The combination of the ports' backlog, inflation, and the administration's crippling energy policies are making everything unaffordable for Californians, especially gas. We must address the supply chain crisis, unleash domestic energy production, and stop the reckless government spending driving inflation. I urge the Senate to pass this bill immediately so we can tackle this crisis and help California families. ____________________”
