Lord, give our elected officials strength and courage to protect our freedom and not let it slip away. Thank You for our nation. Forgive us for straying so far from You. bring revival, O Lord.

Fifteen Republican governors pledged to alleviate the supply chain crisis amid counterproductive policies from President Biden.

Supply chain bottlenecks are decreasing the availability of inputs for American businesses and the availability of final goods for American consumers. Meanwhile, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg argues that the crisis is due to Biden “successfully” handling the economy.

However, the governors argue in a letter to President Biden — exclusively shared with Fox News on Monday — that the administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate and other regulations are worsening the crisis.

“With 7.4 million people unemployed and 10.4 million job openings, we have a shortage of 80,000 truck drivers, an all-time high for the trucking industry,” the letter says. “With more paychecks at risk, American families are forced to pay more for food, gas, and everyday goods as inflation surges to a 30-year high under President Biden’s watch.”

The governors therefore “commit to using our authority where allowable to modify weight, size, or load restrictions to allow more cargo to move more efficiently; adjust hours of service constraints to provide truck drivers more time and flexibility; deregulate education and occupational licensure barriers to get more commercial truck drivers on the road.” . . .

Governors leading states with coastal ports committed “to support our ports to operate at full capacity, increase tonnage capacity, and accept more Panamax ships waiting off the west coast.”

Led by Gov. Bill Lee (R-TN), the other signers were Gov. Ron DeSantis (FL), Gov. Greg Abbott (TX), Gov. Mike DeWine (OH), Gov. Doug Ducey (AZ), Gov. Greg Gianforte (MT), Gov. Larry Hogan (MD), Gov. Brian Kemp (GA), Gov. Brad Little (ID), Gov. Henry McMaster (SC), Gov. Mike Parson (MO), Gov. Kim Reynolds (IA), Gov. Pete Ricketts (NE), Gov. Kevin Stitt (OK), and Gov. Doug Burgum (ND).

Investors worry that the supply chain crisis will last into 2023.  . . .

The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development likewise said that high consumer demand and supply-side constraints — such as “container ship carrying capacity, container shortages, labour shortages, continued on and off COVID-19 restrictions across port regions and congestion at ports” — could lead to price hikes through 2023.

Comment your prayers for these governors!

I agree with the idea of contacting our state reps about this. Virginia has a very large international port and it is not part of this group. It should be. Praise God we will get a new governor next year!

Thank GOD for Governors that care for their people and our country! Saints we must pray “without ceasing!” When the cry from Israel was great; GOD sent deliverance! He will deliver and avenge us as we cry out to HIM day and night also! I saw a YouTube video by Matthew McConaughey the actor saying Texas has problems and that he may run for Governor of Texas! GOD forbid! Pray for Governor Abbott who has stood up for Texans every day against the evil! Many flaky democratic Californians and New Yorkers are moving away from the states that they helped corrupt and ruin into Texas, Utah, Florida, the Dakotas, etc. I don’t believe it is accidental; I believe they want to turn these Republican states democrat! Saints pray that a revolution can be avoided, because many of us will not submit to this democratic Hitlerism without a fight in JESUS Name! FATHER GOD please protect and defend and deliver us from the evil administration and evil federal, state, and local government democrats who all spout the same evil! Please protect us from these covid variants and let the liars continue to be completely exposed! Make ALL of their evil public for everyone to see in the MIGHTY Name of JESUS! Amen!

I believe the correct term is “BAND together” like joining a group.

I declare and decree the example set by these government leaders of unity and one accord will be multiplied with expotential increase in government and political arenas in reference to the blueprints of heaven intervening in America. Let the river of God invade America in the government arenas for the glory of God. America is destined to be a light to the world and continue to evangelize and awaken to Almightly God.

May God remove from office those people who are either incompetent or malevolent and replace them with righteous people. I pray that God will send revival to Washington DC and our leaders will repent and turn to God.
I also pray for America singles who are not immune from rising prices. may the church repent of acting as if only families exist or are important.

“American families are forced to pay more for food”. No, American PEOPLE are forced to pay more.

Thank you Lord for leadership that works with each other to solve our artificially and politically created problems. Thank you for those who are diligent to use their positions for good instead of trying to blame others for problems. Replace ungodly leaders and authority with those who love You Lord and will truly serve the people of each state. Amen.

Thank you Father God for enabling people in positions of authority to seek a viable solution to a consumer problem. Allowing people to go to work with no false restrictions of those with hidden agendas.

Isaiah 54:17NO WEAPON that is formed against us shall prosper and every tongue that shall rise up against us in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

My God supplies All my needs according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus: we Decree right now that those 30k drivers are anointed of the Lord to engage in profitable livelihood to the Glory of God.

May President Biden and his companions be under GRACE as this country functions according to the highest level: that we are divinely gifted to see heaven on earth.

Merry Christmas from ABBA 🤗🎶

Praise God that these brave Republicans are standing up against this insanity. Could you post a take action e-mail so we could send a message to our elected officials concerning this, and also a Take Action so we can make our voices heard about this “build back better” $2 trillion dollar bill they are trying to push also? I really want to make my voice heard regarding these two issues.
Thank you.

The suggestions made regarding contacting our State Representatives seems very practical, and demonstrates how we can put action behind our prayer. This crisis is affecting all of us. At the pump yesterday, I had to pay double to fill up as opposed to a year ago! God knows our need and will answer but we need to do our part.

Praise God that these governors have stood up together to this insanity. It is symptomatic of how non-functional our Federal government truly is. Pete B. is as clueless as his boss, Joe Biden. Something has to give in this unacceptable situation. Contacting our legislators to take action would be a very timely option to have- could you please make that available to us as intercessors? Thank you in advance!

Can you please create a “Take Action” button for this so we can flood our representatives’ in-boxes with requests to get onboard and support this issue? At last count, there are a LOT of states not stepping up on this, including Indiana. Thanks for all you do, IFA!
