Press Release

Wilson: "We all share the urgency for bold and decisive action."

"There has not been one moment during this economic recession when the two choices Congress faced were passing a massive spending bill or doing nothing at all. We all share the urgency for bold and decisive action. We all have constituents that have lost their jobs and are looking to us for leadership. But despite what some of my colleagues may be saying, we did indeed have other options we could have considered today and throughout this debate. House Republicans have consistently offered targeted and timely solutions to this economic recession that would have put more money back into the pockets of American families and small businesses - the engines of job creation.

"Unfortunately, House Republicans have been shut out of any substantial consideration during this process. The millions of Americans we represent have had their voices shut out by the majority, and we have seen the commonsense, proven methods of economic stimulus we could have considered today replaced by a spending agenda that will saddle future generations with an ever growing debt."
