Joe Wilson

Congressman Joe Wilson unveiled his 2010 legislative priorities during three press conferences throughout South Carolina´s Second Congressional district:

“In 2009, we witnessed the return of big government and its big failures. Lawmakers not only put American taxpayers on the hook for the year´s historic financial downturn, they also passed a Washington takeover of health care and continued debate on a national energy tax. Meanwhile, American families and small business owners continued to wonder when job creation policies would arrive.

“In this new year, it´s time for Congress to finally get our priorities straight and discuss job creation policies each and every day. History shows that a combination of low taxes, worker training, right-to-work protections and less regulatory red tape is a sound recipe to attract business. I urge Speaker Pelosi to consider these ideas and more, to get America´s economy rolling once again.

“It is also crucial that we enhance America´s national security by finally securing America´s borders, reducing our dependence on foreign oil, and supporting the President´s decision to send reinforcements to Afghanistan,” said Congressman Joe Wilson.
