But in addition to that, Rosa DeLauro, who has been on this case for a while, she was the chair of the Agriculture Subcommittee of Appropriations when she \u2014 now she\u2019s chair of the whole committee. But she has been working on this to have some funding so that we can immediately purchase, overseas \u2014 there are four countries, Chile, Mexico, Ireland and the Netherlands, that have supply that might be available to us. The president is quite correct. We must do something as quickly as possible, but as safely as possible, and use caution, for these babies. But we have to move quickly to do that. And part of this is, again, the supply chain issue.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><em>RELATED:<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/watch-pelosi-pressed-on-what-democrats-are-doing-to-slow-down-skyrocketing-inflation\">WATCH: Pelosi Pressed On What Democrats Are Doing To Slow Down Skyrocketing Inflation<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) snapped on Sunday when confronted with remarks from Rep.
