Wilson Unveils Agenda for 110th Congress
Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) today unveiled his legislative agenda for the 110th session of Congress. Wilson held three press conferences throughout South Carolina’s Second Congressional District to announce these priorities.
“As the 110th Congress gets underway, the safety and security of South Carolina families remain my top priorities. I look forward to working with our new Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and my Congressional colleagues to map the best path forward in Iraq and keep our homeland free from attack.
“While remaining diligently focused on a strong foreign policy, several domestic issues will also command attention. As a member of the House Education and Workforce Committee, I will be involved in reauthorizing the No Child Left Behind Act and advocating for Association Health Plans.
“As we have seen in recent months, low-tax, pro-growth initiatives stimulate the economy and create more jobs. Thus, I remain committed to permanently extending the 2003 tax cuts and supporting responsible fiscal policies.”
Wilson’s Agenda for the 110th Congress
- National Security - remain on the offense in the Global War on Terrorism; accelerate training of Iraqi Security Forces
- Education Policy - reauthorize Higher Education Act and No Child Left Behind
- Economy - continue to advocate for pro-growth, fiscally responsible policies
- Healthcare - push for Association Health Plans; continue successful implementation of Medicare Part D
