          HOUSE REPUBLICANS FIGHTING TO PROTECT AMERICAN 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. Mr. Speaker, with more than 14 million 
Americans unemployed, the irresponsible agenda of the National Labor 
Relations Board is destroying more jobs. In April, the NLRB filed a 
complaint against The Boeing Company for creating thousands of jobs in 
a right-to-work State, South Carolina.
  The Protecting Jobs from Government Interference Act will promote, 
today, a positive environment for job creators by developing their 
businesses in a State that offers the best opportunities for job 
growth. The new law will prohibit the NLRB from dictating where 
employers can relocate, shut down, or transfer employment.
  I am proud of the leadership of the four freshmen from South Carolina 
making a difference promoting jobs, led by Congressman Tim Scott of 
North Charleston who introduced this legislation, and I'm grateful to 
be an original cosponsor with Congressman

Trey Gowdy of Spartanburg, Congressman Jeff Duncan of Laurens, and 
Congressman Mick Mulvaney of Indian Land.
  This legislation will provide the certainty for job creators to 
invest in the economy and put Americans back to work.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget 
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
