Today I voted against the "American Energy Independence from Russia Act." While we should take steps to expand domestic production of energy by reauthorizing the Keystone XL Pipeline and allowing land-based drilling and fracking, this legislation contains a poison pill...(1/4)

...and actually helps Russia. It would abolish the moratorium on new oil and gas drilling leases off Florida’s coast. It would harm Northwest Florida’s military mission. It would impair the research, development, (2/4)

testing and evaluation work that allows our military to maintain a qualitative edge over Russia, China, and the world. It would be foolish to respond to Russia’s aggression by rendering America less capable to defeat Russia or anyone else. (3/4)

As I stated recently at the 2022 Conservative Political Action Conference, we must expand America’s access to natural resources. But launching experimental missiles over oil rigs is as dumb as dumb gets. (4/4)

All of us trying to understand the fumbles and mumbles of Joe Biden’s timing… #SOTU2022 https://t.co/oGERjv68PW

Biden to appoint a Chief Prosecutor for Pandemic Fraud Let’s start with Dr. Fauci… #SOTU2022 https://t.co/72Apmds7Kg

The fundamental flaw of the #SOTU2022 address is that government spending doesn’t solve inflation. In many cases, it causes it. It was almost a rehearsal or a redo of a lot of the policies that Biden couldn’t get passed. https://t.co/FgrQoNAYrs

RT @newsmax: .@RepMattGaetz rips President Biden's #SOTU address as a "regurgitation of failure." "That frontloaded focus on Ukraine is unlikely to bring Joe Biden out of the tailspin that he's in." @ericbolling @LyndsayMKeith https://t.co/3NYHrBpPO4

RT @Fla_Pol: .@MattGaetz casts lone GOP vote against opening oil production, including in Gulf of Mexico Reporting by @JacobOgles https://t.co/5DmN2qqpKn #FlaPol https://t.co/qs3cUOBjg5

I found it bizarre that we were 32 minutes into the #SOTU2022 speech before Joe Biden said, "and the rising cost of goods is my number one priority." Typically, number one priorities make it a little before half an hour into the speech. https://t.co/hKrF3Tblc7 https://t.co/mwo6qkZcNq

RT @BKearneyTV: NEW: @mattgaetz sending a letter to Commissioner Wes Moreno regarding concerns inside the jail. The letter calls on Moreno to respond with how the county plans on addressing pay issues with its corrections employees. @weartv https://t.co/A9vqniY7sc

NEW: In today’s episode of @Firebrand_Pod, Rep. Matt Gaetz reacts to Joe Biden’s first #SOTU2022 address, discusses his thoughts on the Russia/Ukraine conflict, and lays out a vision for the Republican agenda after we retake the majority in the fall. https://t.co/7wo5ynF4TM

If government spending solved inflation, we would already have inflation kryptonite as a result of the Biden agenda. The reality is when the government prints more money, that results in that money being less valuable and less worthy. https://t.co/7wo5ynF4TM https://t.co/unkr33i2nE

In his #SOTU2022 address, Joe Biden seemed to regurgitate the elements of his agenda that have already failed. WATCH @Firebrand_Pod: https://t.co/7wo5ynF4TM https://t.co/vdQdjWIlHe

The Biden “Unity Agenda” is a farce. Service members should not be subjected to these mandates and the continuing harassment from elements of the Pentagon that would drive out anyone who doesn't think like they do. WATCH: https://t.co/7wo5ynF4TM https://t.co/4Qx5noTKEj

For too long, our veterans have been denied proper care for toxic exposures because of toxic Washington policy. The brave men and women of the US military were exposed to burn pits used in the disposal of waste in the Middle East. (1/3)

The toxic chemicals that emanate from this process cause grave damage to human health. Toxic burn pits are this generation’s Agent Orange. Military veterans dedicate their lives to serving America, often at the expense of their health. (2/3)

Providing veterans with the compensation and help they need to heal from toxic exposure is why I voted yes for honoring dangerous and selfless military service with HR 3967. (3/3)
