Republican nominee Kari Lake has said that her campaign makes sure to use items ‘made in America.’

North Carolina Rep. Ted Budd, who is running for one of the state’s U.S. Senate seats, voted against the CHIPS and Science Act, but acknowledged that it was bringing technology jobs to the voters he hopes to represent.

The CHIPS and Science Act provides subsidies to companies to manufacture semiconductors in the United States.

‘Under President Biden’s leadership, we are once again making things in America,’ Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said in a statement announcing the new plan.

The Republican senator claimed the United States should manufacture ‘certain strategic products,’ but his voting record says otherwise.

The America COMPETES Act of 2022 contains many of the ‘Made in America’ ideas the Florida Republican senator pitched in February.

There were both supply chain and labor shortages under former President Donald Trump.

Senate Republicans are still blocking debate on the $579 billion legislation.

Donald Trump had long promised to ‘bring back’ American jobs and largely failed. Biden is taking a different route.

‘America can’t sit on the sidelines in the race for the future,’ Biden said

There are signs that the job market, for all its deep losses, might be set up for a fast hiring recovery.

Trump’s claims of vast job creation are easily debunked.

Trump has not delivered on his promise to ‘get those jobs coming back’ to Ohio.

He falsely told Michigan voters he’d brought their state ‘so many damn car plants.’

The poll comes during a manufacturing recession in the Midwest.
