Congressional Record, House, March 8, 2022: Page H1357
Summary
Page H1357 of the House section of the Congressional Record for March 8, 2022, mostly a roll call listing with a count of 14 not voting, in interleaved columns. Mr. Palazzo speaks under the heading Biden's Energy Crisis and Mr. Rosendale under Restoring American Energy Dominance, each criticizing the administration's energy policy, which are the speakers' views. A tribute remembers a man named Wayne as a treasure and offers thoughts to his family, and another passage addresses scapegoating and targeting of Jews in the United States and terrorism.
