TRUMP TAX CUTS CREATE 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, due to the tax cuts of
President Donald Trump and the Republican Congress, there is
unprecedented growth for American families.
The Hill today reported great things for the American people. CNBC
reported that consumer confidence rose to its highest level in 18
years. The African American unemployment rate of 5.9 percent is the
lowest on record--CNN. Median household income at historic highs--
Investor's Business Daily. Middle class income hit an all-time high
last year--The Washington Post. The majority of U.S. workers are
satisfied with their job, highest job level satisfaction since 2005--
USA Today. Youth unemployment at a 52-year low--Wall Street Journal.
Small-business optimism, and plans to raise wages are at record highs--
Bloomberg. GDP was 4.2 percent, the best performance in 4 years--
Reuters. And unemployment is at a several-decade low--New York Times.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
Our prayers for Brett Kavanaugh and his family, a judge of integrity.
