Wilson Promotes Military Families with Visit to White House

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) released the following statement after visiting the White House this morning to promote the National Initiative to Support Military Families:

"This morning's meeting with First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden brings attention to the National Initiative to Support Military Families and what it aims to achieve. Whether it is a private citizen, a philanthropic organization, or the government; the initiative seeks to educate and induce action from all groups and organizations in a community in supporting military families.

As a 31 year veteran of the South Carolina National Guard and Reserve and the father of four sons currently serving in the military, I understand the sacrifice many military families make and fully support the National Initiative to Support Military Families in its efforts to reconnect these families with their communities."
