TRUMP IS STEALING YOUR MONEY

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 87 (Thursday, May 21, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 87 (Thursday, May 21, 2026)] [House] [Page H3715] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] TRUMP IS STEALING YOUR MONEY (Mr. AMO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. AMO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to reveal a theft from the American people. Donald Trump is stealing our money. At every turn, he is taking money from Americans' bank accounts to pad his pockets and those of his billionaire buddies. His tariffs, which were twice ruled illegal, cost the average working family of four $1,700 last year. At the gas pump, Americans have collectively paid an extra $40 billion to fuel up since the start of this war of choice with Iran. What is Trump's latest grift? It is an over $1.7 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund to pay off his cronies who have been convicted of crimes, including the dangerous felons who attacked the Capitol on January 6. Donald Trump is abusing power and weakening our democracy, and Republicans in Congress are complicit by refusing to act. Enough with the greed and the corruption. End the war, stop the chaos, and let's do something to lower costs for the American people. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Schmidt). Members are reminded to refrain from engaging in personalities toward the President. ____________________
