Wilson Urges Bipartisan Support for Boehner’s Common-Sense Economic Plan

9.8.10

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) today released the following statement supporting Republican Leader John Boehner's plan for immediate action to create jobs and ease economic uncertainty:

"After 16 straight months of broken promises, unemployment has remained above nine percent. America's economy has the ability to rebound but this Administration and liberal leaders in Congress continue to drag their feet on solutions.

"I applaud Republican Leader Boehner's common-sense job creation plan that will make an economic rebound a reality. The plan is simple: cut spending and keep taxes low, but the outcome could be great if members from both sides of the aisle come together to support this plan.

"More government spending to create more government jobs is not the way to get America's economy rolling once again. I fully support slashing government spending by 20% and keeping taxes low for all hardworking Americans who are trying to help this economy rebound," said Congressman Joe Wilson.
