Madam Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding and thank him for his leadership. The President's most important job is to lead, to lead and protect our country. Yet time and again, all we have seen from President Biden is a failure to lead. Biden's handling of Afghanistan led to the death of 13 American servicemembers and left hundreds more abandoned. This was a failure to lead. Biden's handling of the border has been a disaster with more than two million illegal immigrants being apprehended at our border. This was a failure to lead. {time} 1415 Biden failed to shut down COVID-19 and has allowed more Americans to die from this disease, despite widespread access to vaccines. This was a failure to lead. Inflation is at a 40-year high; supply chains are crippled; and labor shortages have hindered an economic recovery. This has been a failure to lead.
