Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Elise Stefanik joined her House Republican colleagues to highlight her legislation, the REIN IN Inflation Act, which will be brought up for a final vote on the House floor tomorrow. This legislation works to hold Joe Biden accountable for his reckless spending and fights inflation for hardworking Americans by requiring the Administration publish the inflationary impact of executive orders before enacting them. In her remarks, Stefanik also detailed how House Republicans are working to fulfill their Commitment to America by hosting field hearings across the country.
Read a full transcript of her remarks below.
This week, I am proud House Republicans are bringing my bill, the REIN IN Inflation Act, to a vote on the House floor. The REIN IN Inflation Act will deliver on House Republicans’ Commitment to America, holding Joe Biden accountable for his costly executive orders that fueled this Bidenflation crisis, a painful tax on every American.
In Joe Biden’s first year in office alone, he issued more executive orders than any president in my lifetime, costing taxpayers more than one trillion dollars.
From canceling the Keystone XL pipeline to pushing the out-of-touch and costly ‘Green New Deal’ regulations, it’s past time for Joe Biden to address the price tag of his costly executive orders.
The REIN IN Inflation Act will expose Joe Biden and demand transparency for the American people by revealing just how much Biden’s executive orders are costing hardworking families.
I am proud to lead this legislation and to deliver results for Upstate New York’s hardworking families and small businesses—as well as families and small businesses across America.
House Republicans are also kicking off our Commitment to America across America. You will note that our committees are hosting hearings outside of the Beltway, hearing firsthand from communities that are impacted by these harmful Democrat policies. Hearings in Yuma, Arizona, Petersburg, West Virginia, and Midland, Texas.
House Democrats refuse to show up, listen, and lead across America. House Republicans will continue to show up, listen, and lead on behalf of the American people.
