I thank the gentleman for yielding and for hosting this Special Order. Madam Speaker, Joe Biden's first year in office has exceeded all expectations. In 365 short days, Joe Biden has managed to inflict an entire term of pain and hardship on the American people. Grocery store shelves are empty. Prices are up 7 percent nationwide. Gas costs $1 more per gallon today than it did when Biden took office. Americans lost the equivalent of two paychecks last year, and Biden has failed to add one single job from our 2019 high. Madam Speaker, only one thing has gone down in price during this administration, and that is the price of fentanyl. That is the price of fentanyl because of the fentanyl that is coming across the southern border. Washington Democrats were counting on Joe Biden to socialize our economy, and, boy, did he deliver. His administration caved to teachers unions, putting the wants of liberal elites ahead of the needs of our children who are desperate for high quality, in-person learning. Domestic terrorists--that is how this administration labeled parents who want better for their children than virtual learning. It is despicable. He caved to Russia, gutting the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office but allowing the Nord Stream 2 pipeline to push ahead virtually unchecked. He caved to Fauci, who kept his job despite lying to Congress about gain-of-function research. Do you know who isn't caving, Madam Speaker?…
