People in the Denver suburbs don’t understand wolf attacks. They see filtered images through the media of cute little wolf pups. But in reality, wolf attacks are gruesome. I have received many letters from families, farmers, and ranchers across Colorado who have reached out to my office since they have nowhere else to turn. I am committed to being rural Colorado’s voice in Congress and finding appropriate management solutions. Gray wolves are fully recovered, should be delisted in the lower 48, and should be managed by states.

Two of Congresswoman Lauren Boebert’s amendments to the Parents Bill of Rights passed the House with unanimous bipartisan consent. The first amendment requires schools to notify parents if biological males are permitted to participate in women’s sports. The second amendment requires schools to notify parents if biological males are permitted to use women’s restrooms.

The bipartisan Dolores River National Conservation Area and Special Management Area Act is the gold standard for public lands bills as it protects traditional uses and was written from the ground up by a bipartisan coalition of local stakeholders. So many other public lands bills in Congress trample on the rights and liberties of the American people, but this legislation is good for conservation, good for private property rights, and good for local communities. I thank Senator Bennet, Commissioner Cooper, Chairman Heart, and all the amazing people in Southwest Colorado who put their heart into this effort and played an important role in building this coalition.

America’s energy problems are self-inflicted wounds caused by the Biden administration. We can responsibly develop our natural resources to bring energy prices down immediately, but Biden’s army of bureaucrats would rather stonewall energy permit applications. I am grateful that my American Energy Act was included in the TAPP American Resources Act that passed the House Committee on Natural Resources today. This commonsense legislation will streamline the energy permitting process, encourage responsible energy production, and bring down gas prices by providing certainty for energy producers.

Biden’s WOTUS rule is another land and water grab to expand the federal government’s jurisdiction and regulate every aspect of our lives. This job-killing mandate will devastate small businesses, farmers, ranchers, and everyday Americans. The EPA has no business regulating ditches. Farmers and ranchers also shouldn’t have to hire a team of consultants to determine what actions they can take on their own property. This new rule is not well thought out, and I’m glad the House took definitive action today to fight this overreach.

My commonsense amendment ensures that the American people, who bear the brunt of inflation’s impacts, will be better informed of the President’s inflation-inducing actions. Instead of just reporting inflation information to Congress, my amendment will require the White House to report inflation information to the American people by publishing it on OMB’s public website. More transparency leads to better policies, and I am excited for the American people to have access to the actual cost estimates for our economy associated with new federal regulations are creating massive inflation.

I am fighting for real infrastructure solutions that will benefit rural Colorado. I worked closely with local stakeholders to submit grant support letters for three local priorities, including the Pueblo Medal of Honor Boulevard Extension Project, the Mesa County Orchard Avenue Project, and the I-70 Corridor Resilience and Connectivity Improvements Project. Improving rural transportation in Colorado communities is one of my top priorities in Congress. I’m hopeful the Department of Transportation will give these three projects full and fair consideration.

With the average price of gasoline nationwide currently sitting at $3.35, clearly we must do more to streamline the energy permitting process and encourage responsible energy production. I am thrilled that the TAP American Energy Act includes my bill, H.R. 1067. My bill is important to the people in my District and will help reduce gas prices by providing certainty for energy producers.

The Biden administration is colluding with Green New Deal extremists to slow down energy leasing, clog up the bureaucratic pipeline, and threaten American energy producers with frivolous lawsuits. My American Energy Act cuts red tape to unleash American energy by extending the term of APDs from two years to four years to reduce unnecessary paperwork, ensuring agencies process permits under a valid existing lease regardless of any unrelated civil action, and by prohibiting activist judges from unilaterally vacating valid energy leases. In short, H.R. 1067 will help reduce gas prices by providing certainty for responsible energy production and preventing baseless litigation. With the price at the pump skyrocketing and the international energy market destabilizing, the world needs American energy now more than ever.
