Wilson Supports A Pledge to America

September 23, 2010

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) joins House Republicans to support A Pledge to America, a new governing agenda centered around the top priorities of hardworking Americans across the country. The Pledge, which Wilson wholeheartedly supports, offers concrete solutions for immediate action to create jobs, stop frivolous spending, enhance national security, improve health care, and reform a broken Washington. The full agenda can be viewed here.

"After months of double digit unemployment and free-for-all spending sprees, it is quite obvious that a new way forward is very much needed. Through town hall meetings, district tours, and interactive forums, I've heard the pleas from hardworking Americans about their desire to correct Washington's misplaced priorities.

"Today, House Republicans have formally answered that call with detailed solutions to create private sector jobs, reform health care, rein in reckless spending, and strengthen national security. Our pledge to create jobs will be achieved through tax relief for families and small business owners. Our pledge to protect the prosperity of future generations involves bringing down the budget deficit. And our pledge to keep America safe will include strengthening border security and missile defense.

"I want to thank all Americans who have contributed their ideas to this pledge and encourage you to continue to help us fight for these solutions starting today," said Congressman Joe Wilson.
