Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, I continue to be disappointed in the priorities of my colleagues. They have chosen to spend precious time that could be spent addressing the national debt, inflation, gas prices, or any number of serious issues facing Americans today. Instead, they chose to talk about legalizing marijuana and spending tax dollars on pot stores-- which does not take into consideration important elements like how to protect minors or how to address laws surrounding driving under the influence--and an insincere attempt to address the rising cost of insulin. Mr. Speaker, I oppose the rule and the underlying bills, I ask Members to do the same, and I yield back the balance of my time.
