Alan Wilson

If you’re gonna be a leader, you gotta own it all.

Had we brought down the raise in the rate of spending to the raise of population growth, we could have returned $20 billion to the people of South Carolina

As South Carolina’s Attorney General, I have been proud to stand with him. And I never backed down. When President Trump needed fighters, I was in the fight.

It is vital to the strength of our republic that we ensure only American citizens vote in our elections and that mail-in and absentee ballots are secure and reliable.

I want to make it clear we are not targeting communities because of what you look like or where you work.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be stuck footing the bill for decades due to government red tape, and victims of the most heinous crimes deserve justice in a timely manner.

No one’s fought harder or risked more for President Trump and his agenda than I have. I look forward to continuing to deliver real results for South Carolina families as their next Governor.

Law enforcement and TSA agents show up every day to protect the public, and right now they’re not even getting paid. They deserve respect and appreciation. Not profanity. Not threats. Not tantrums.

Look, I’m not one of these people who thinks President Trump is going to give an endorsement easily in this race. I feel like you have to earn his endorsement.

It is clear that Attorney General Alan Wilson has built his career on protecting the most vulnerable in our state; any statement otherwise is blatantly false and politically motivated.

Democracy is the worst form of government except for every other kind.

No one -- no one, no matter who you are in society is above the law.

What is the Department's plan if Russia were to ask for concessions that the United States can not make?

This will not save taxpayers' dollars and will jeopardize nonproliferation.

The DOJ opinion strikes at the very heart of State powers.

If we have trouble protecting our children from cyberbullying and other Internet crimes-against-children cases, then how can we expect a State to protect our youth from the potential harm of putting an online casino in their pocket.

The Federal Government should respect the rights of States, not destroy those rights.

I'm not up here to say that gambling should be made illegal. I think if New Jersey...want to have a robust gambling industry, they should be free to pursue that.

The DOJ opinion strikes at the very heart of...It should not legalize gambling activities the States make illegal.

Each State is entitled to decide for itself how or whether to regulate gambling or ban it all together.

The members of this committee should recognize that under our Constitution, particularly the 10th Amendment, the States have virtually exclusive authority over gambling.

There is no violation of State sovereignty or 10th Amendment because Congress has the authority under Article I, Section 8 to regulate interstate commerce.

I believe under the 10th Amendment States should be able to outlaw Internet gambling, but those States that want gambling in there can certainly pass those laws that allow it to occur.

If you make online gambling legal at the Federal level, then you have basically legalized it in States where they don't want gambling at all.

I believe that if online gambling, if it is allowed by the Federal Government, you're basically putting a virtually floating casino over every State or in every pocket of every teenager or young person who wants to be able to access it.
