Mr. CLYDE. Madam Speaker, tomorrow marks the one-year anniversary of President Biden's inauguration. Many Americans have now endured 365 days of an absent administration, 52 weeks of policy failures, 12 months of utter turmoil, and a year of constant, crippling crises.

Earlier today a Rasmussen Poll revealed that 60 percent of the country considers the President's first year in office unsuccessful. Fifty percent said it was very unsuccessful, with one third of Democrats believing Biden's first year was a failure. All of this has contributed to his abysmal 33 percent rating, the lowest since Jimmy Carter.

Madam Speaker, in all sincerity, I didn't imagine this much damage could be done in just one year, but here we are, facing an economic crisis with hyperinflation, a supply chain crisis, a labor shortage crisis, a border crisis, a national security crisis, an energy crisis with incredible gas prices, an education crisis, a COVID crisis, a crime crisis, and an election integrity crisis with Democrats trying to push through election reforms that would federalize our election and eliminate voter ID. Ultimately, these all stem from a leadership crisis in the White House, a leadership crisis that has caused Americans unnecessary hardship.

Madam Speaker, as we enter the second year of the Biden administration's rule, the President has an important decision to make. Will he continue to sidestep from the crises he has created, destined to inflict more destruction? Or will he confront these crises head-on and implement successful solutions?

Mr. President, the American people demand successful solutions. They deserve successful solutions.
