REPUBLICAN PROMISES KEPT

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 144 (Monday, September 14, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 144 (Monday, September 14, 2026)] [House] [Page H5541] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] REPUBLICAN PROMISES KEPT (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, under the leadership of President Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson, and House Republicans, the 119th Congress has been the most successful, aggressive, and productive for the House since 1949, with nearly 900 measures having passed. Republicans are keeping money in the pockets of American families, while demanding accountability from the government, eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse, and creating jobs. The Working Families Tax Cuts Act has cut over $1 trillion in wasteful spending, in addition to: Delivering a deduction for seniors on Social Security. Creating Trump tax accounts to help children begin saving. Lowering tax rates for millions of American families. Eliminating tax on tips and overtime. Increasing the child tax credit to $2,200. Promises made; promises kept. In conclusion, God bless our troops. Trump is reinstituting peace through strength, revealing war criminal Putin lies, insulting Trump and mocking Trump, firing at Ukrainian civilian service stations with Putin increasing diesel prices worldwide, as Putin also attacks children's hospitals to intimidate the civilians of Ukraine. ____________________
