BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. ROSE. Madam Speaker, as the father of two young boys, I am horrified by the shortage of baby formula that is quickly becoming a crisis all across this country.

I represent a mother from Gallatin, Tennessee, with an 8-month-old little girl who can tolerate only hypoallergenic baby formula. Recently, the mother had to go to six different stores and then call multiple others as far away as 3 hours to search for hypoallergenic formula for her baby.

Unfortunately, President Biden has no answers for new mothers and fathers struggling to find baby formula. I guess we will have to now add the critical shortage of baby formula to the long list of other crises our President has caused but, apparently, can do nothing to resolve, such as runaway, devastating inflation; massive Federal debt; unacceptably high gas prices; a skyrocketing crime rate; and an open border that allows millions of illegal immigrants and tons of deadly fentanyl into our country.

Madam Speaker, the President must simply do better.
