President Joe Biden pledged to get construction materials using federal infrastructure projects to be made in the United States.

The country is at an inflection point, as President Joe Biden likes to say. So, too, is Biden's presidency, as he prepares to compete for a second term in office.
Biden's descriptions of how infrastructure investments will benefit middle class families are not resonating with blue-collar workers – particularly white voters who didn't attend college. Many defected from the Democratic Party over the last decade and offered Biden lukewarm support in the last presidential election.
Ahead of an expected re-election announcement in the coming weeks, Biden is making a concerted effort to bring working-class Americans back into the fold. His first stop on his post-State of the Union tour will be at a union-run apprenticeship and training facility in Wisconsin, a state that epitomizes the challenges that Democrats face in the 2024 election with independents and workers who have been hard hit by the decline in American manufacturing.

Idk why this matters. It sounds dumb and I see nothing wrong with sourcing materials from other countries.
More jobs for the American people.

All of a sudden Joe’s pro USA 🇺🇸
Was that not President Trump’s idea? 🧐
I hope that doesn’t mean clearcutting the rest of our natural forrest?
Oh so the same thing that Trump was doing. Does he ever have an idea that’s original?
It’s all good as long as he gets the importance of Made in America.
@Kicking It in the Kitchen!! I have doubts.
Now that’s something I can back the president on! God bless America.
