Wilson Praises Continued Economic Growth

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) today made the following statement regarding the U.S. Department of Labor’s report that 113,000 jobs were created in July:

“Today’s jobs report is more good news for American families. While 113,000 people were added to the workforce last month, House Republicans were busy ensuring these workers keep more of their hard-earned money.

“With passage of such legislation as the ’Tax Relief Extension Reconciliation Act,’ ’Permanent Estate Tax Relief Act,’ and the ’Pension Protection Act,’ Americans can rest easy knowing that Republicans in Congress are fighting for them.

“Through our responsible fiscal policies and commitment to lower taxes, families throughout America can enjoy the fruits of their labor.”
