Many people want to transfer their bitcoin and the miners get to pick the transactions that get through - they generally select transactions with the higher fees.
If you only want to transfer $1 worth, you'll have to wait until the mempool is nearly empty - see April 10,11,12,13
You likely wont have to wait tooooo long. If you don't like waiting, you can use the lightning network - https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin/lightning-network/wallets/ (caution - some wallets are custodial - not your keys = not your coins)
