OBAMA ADMINISTRATION KILLS JOBS
(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, tomorrow the House
Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, led by Chairman Darrell
Issa, will conduct a field hearing at The Boeing Company's 1.1 million
square-foot manufacturing plant in North Charleston, South Carolina.
This will expose an outrage of Big Government killing jobs.
As the Seattle Times correctly editorialized Monday: ``The NLRB is
attempting to reverse a U.S. investment by the Nation's number one
exporter 17 months after the company decided to make it--after the
money's been spent, after the equipment is set up, and after 1,000
workers have been hired. For the government to demand now that the
company move everything to another State shows no sense of practical
reality.''
South Carolina recruited this new second line of 787 Dreamliners
through a competitive incentive package developed by Commerce Secretary
Joe Taylor, which included a trained, world-class workforce, a
welcoming pro-business climate, right-to-work laws, and pro-business
local government of Republican and Democratic bipartisanship. The
Boeing Company's decision was based on economics and sound business
policy. The Obama administration should stop its attack on American
jobs and American workers.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
