South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, South Carolina Secretary of Transportation Justin Powell, U.S. Congressman Ralph Norman (SC-05), elected officials, family and friends, all gathered Wednesday at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport for the naming ceremony of the Columbia Airport Expressway in honor of Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02).

Earlier this year, the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) Commission voted to name the section of highway after Wilson in appreciation for his many years of dedicated service to the Palmetto State.

     “I am beyond grateful to SCDOT for naming Columbia Airport Expressway the Congressman Joe Wilson Expressway and will always fight for the people of South Carolina and the United States,” said Congressman Wilson.
