Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I would like to talk about the latest front in the Biden administration's war on the middle class. They are all for the welfare class, and they are all for the superrich, but not the middle class. We are used to hearing about the massive increase in costs of cars and light trucks as we are forced into electric vehicles. At least as I understand it, talking to my dealers, the cost of a car is probably going to go up about 25 percent. We are used to also hearing about the massive increase in car insurance that we are going to have as we go to electric vehicles. We don't hear about the huge hammer coming down on the backbone of the American middle class, the American truck driver. I found out today that the cost of a new semi going from diesel to electric vehicle will go from $130,000 to over $300,000 a semi. As far as the amount that you are able to drive before refueling: from 1,200 miles back down to only 325 miles. Congress must act to prevent President Biden's latest war on the truck driver, the backbone of the American middle class. ____________________”
