THE PRESIDENT'S LEGACY OF FAILURE
(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, this evening the President
will address Congress and the American people and will defend his
legacy of failure in jobs, national defense, and more gun control.
The President's legacy has destroyed jobs and has increased
regulations that cripple small business. He should change course to
support creating jobs and reducing unnecessary regulations, and he
should repeal ObamaCare.
The President's legacy overseas--abandoning Iraq, not upholding the
red line in Syria, and opposing a NATO training force in Libya--allowed
ISIS to grow, with children fleeing, drowning at sea.
The President should change course to actually destroy ISIS. American
families need a positive plan for victory in the global war on
terrorism.
The President's legacy of more gun control would not have stopped any
of the mass attacks. The President should change course to reform
mental health and to stop terrorists from attacking American families.
I join the rest of America in hoping the President offers a positive
agenda for the American people tonight, not more Big Government
failure.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President, by his
actions, never forget September the 11th in the global war on
terrorism.
