The cost of living keeps getting more expensive, and we are reminded of that every time we fill up our cars and trucks. Gasoline prices, at a 7-year high, are putting a strain on family budgets. When asked about surging gas prices, President Biden said, ``I don't have a near-term solution.'' Well, Republicans do, with bills languishing in committee. His lack of solutions is of little comfort to struggling families. Meanwhile, the President's $5 trillion tax-and-spending plan advances extreme policies that will increase consumer costs and undermine American energy. That includes imposing a new tax on home heating bills, as well as an arbitrary drilling moratorium on Federal lands. Banning domestic energy production will only increase reliance on foreign energy sources, and motorists everywhere will pay with higher prices at the pump. Let's stop this reckless spending spree and attack on American energy before it is too late. ____________________
