capito: thank you, madam president. today i join my colleagues to talk about highlighting some of the things, what we see as a dubious environment and energy provisions included in the democrats' reckless tax-and-spending proposal and what that would mean to the american public. this week the u.s. energy and information administration, a nonpartisan governmental group, forecasted that americans' cost of natural gas bills will go up 30% this winter. we're getting ready to get into the cold winter seasons. that means american households will spend an average of $746 on gas heating in the months from october through march. 30% more than last year. now, maybe to some people that doesn't sound like much. if you're on a fixed income, that is having to make difficult decisions. also natural gas, the primary heating fuel for american homes, nearly half of the country, this has huge implications for our families. just think of retirees in west virginia on a fixed income. that 30% increase is huge and unmanageable. people already

capito: thank you, madam president. i rise today to take a step back and evaluate the real-life impacts of president biden's policies. as every incoming administration does, promises were made to the american people. that's not surprising. but one of president biden's first promises was to unite the american people, but as we've seen too often here, he has chosen a path that follows the lead of the democrat leadership of the house and senate which is really a solitary path instead of a path of unity. so it's fair to ask, has that agenda resulted in a better life for working families? has it made us more prosperous, more secure? has it made us safer? well, let's take a look. we can start with what is top of mind of all our folks across the country and that is the rising price of every day goods and services. every day men and women go to work, take kids to go to school, expecting that filling up their car will cost a certain amount or the trip to the grocery store will be in the same range. what do they find? well, thank
