PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP'S ACHIEVEMENTS
(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, tomorrow marks President
Donald Trump's first 6 months in office, and I appreciate his many
successes for the American people.
His leadership for jobs has inspired record highs today for the Dow,
S&P 500, and NASDAQ. President Trump has advanced a decisive foreign
policy positively addressing the Muslim world, upholding the United
States commitment to NATO, and working with our allies for peace
through strength. Additionally, the President has taken firm action
against rogue regimes.
In Syria, President Trump was clear that America will not tolerate
chemical weapons attacks by the Assad regime against his citizens. In
North Korea, the President has made clear that he will challenge the
continued provocation by the communist, totalitarian regime; and that
the U.S. will expose Iran for their ballistic missile testing and human
rights abuses.
As of June 30, the House has passed 269 bills, the most of the last
five administrations, with 37 laws signed to date, the most of the last
five administrations.
I look forward to continuing to work with President Donald Trump and
Vice President Mike Pence for positive achievements to promote American
families.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
