Today, Representatives Nancy Mace, Joe Wilson, Ralph Norman, William Timmons, and Russell Fry today introduced the Parris Island Protection Act, which would prohibit the use of federal funds to close or plan the closure of the Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island.
Rep. Mace released the following statement:
“Since opening over a century ago, Parris Island has served a vital role in the defense of America. Over one million brave Marines have trained at the base and served our country in every conflict since World War I. Parris Island is fundamental to our national defense, and I am pleased to join Congressmen Wilson, Norman, Timmons, and Fry to ensure it remains open to train marines for generations to come.”
