President Joe Biden speaks in the South Court Auditorium on the White House complex in Washington, Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2024, to kickoff the Investing in America event. WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden returns to southwest Wisconsin on Thursday to make good on his promise to provide new investments in rural electrification and other infrastructure improvements.
Funding for the project comes from the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act, signed into law in August 2022 and passed in Congress along party lines. The law invests roughly $13 billion in rural electrification across multiple programs and will create 4,500 permanent jobs and 16,000 construction jobs, according to the White House.
Democrats consider Wisconsin to be one of the must-win states in November’s presidential election between Republican former President Donald Trump and Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. Biden won the state in 2020 by about 20,000 votes, flipping Wisconsin to the Democratic column after Trump narrowly won it in 2016.
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Natalie Quillian told reporters Wednesday previewing Biden’s trip that, “when he returns tomorrow, he will have delivered on so many of those promises.”WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is warning voters in the battleground state of North Carolina that they could lose jobs if Republicans weaken a signature Biden administration law that encourages investments in manufacturing and clean energy.
