President Joe Biden sought to put the spotlight on a rare bipartisan down payment on U.S. manufacturing during a visit on Friday to suburban Columbus, Ohio.
— as a tough Senate contest in that state and a Democratic candidate seeking to distance himself from Biden reflected the challenge of translating White House policy wins into political gains.
"Folks, we need to make these chips right here in America to bring down everyday costs and create good jobs," Biden said. "Industry leaders are choosing us, the United States, because they see America’s back and America’s leading the way. Factory work is one of the few issues going into November's midterm elections that has crossover appeal at a time when issues such as abortion, inflation and even the nature of democracy have dominated the contest to control Congress. Biden shared the stage on Friday with Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Sen. Rob Portman, two Republicans who stressed in their remarks the value the plant holds in a state with a working-class identity.
Ryan, pressed Friday by reporters about his comments in the TV interview, said that Biden himself has said he "was going to be a bridge to the next generation, which is basically what I was saying." Pressed if Biden should run in 2024, Ryan offered a noncommittal, "That's up to him." The shortage of semiconductors has slashed into the production of autos, household appliances and other goods. That has fueled high inflation while creating national security risks as the U.S. has recognized it is overly dependent on Asia for chip production."So much of the future of the world is going to be written here, in the Indo-Pacific, over the next several decades," Biden said in remarks on May 20, 2022, at a Samsung facility in South Korea.
