Every day I hear from my constituents that they are struggling to afford groceries, rent, healthcare, and other necessities. That is why lowering costs has always been priority one for me. However, it doesn't seem to be a priority for this administration and some of my colleagues, and they know who they are. Despite President Trump's pledging to end inflation on day one, costs have continued to increase, and his tariffs policy is making things worse. It is crashing the stock market in the process. His policy is essentially adding a massive tax to everyday items for families. I find it unconscionable and, frankly, unacceptable that anyone would make things more expensive right now, and I won't stand by, and I won't let it happen. That is why I am fighting back. I am fighting back with the Protecting Families From Inflation Act. It is my very first bill. It makes progress on my top priority, lowering costs for my constituents. I am calling right now for the House to show they are serious about lowering costs and taking up and passing this legislation. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Bresnahan). The Chair reminds Members to observe proper decorum while in the House.

I urge my colleagues to oppose H.R. 35. Let's call this bill what it is: fear-mongering dressed up as officer safety. This bill echoes one of the darkest chapters in our Nation's history, the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. Just like that…
