EXTEND TAX CUTS
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, instead of calling
Congress back into session to protect special-interest unions and add
more tax increases, we should be focusing on policies that give
American families incentives to invest and create jobs.
Americans should be concerned now about the job-killing bill and the
tax increase we are likely to see before the end of the year. Also,
after the election in November, Washington liberals will try to ram
through a national energy tax, remove the right to a secret workers'
ballot, and continue to skyrocket America's deficits with reckless
spending.
In an effort to prevent this job-killing, lame-duck tactic, I support
Congressman Tom Price's resolution that eliminates a lame-duck session.
This promise is critical in order to represent the will of the American
majority, who have serious concerns about reckless spending and more
taxes, as over 20 million citizens are out of work or have given up
looking for work.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
