It took about 15 minutes, however, for President Biden to shift the focus to Bidenomics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Financial Times and The Wall Street Journal started calling my plan, and not initially as a compliment, Bidenomics,\u201d the president told the crowd at the Ingeteam, a clean energy manufacturer that makes wind turbine generators and is the kind of green energy job creator the president wanted to praise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike the 12 solar energy projects Alliant Energy is building across Wisconsin,\u201d Biden noted. \u201cParis Solar has broken ground on the state\u2019s first, large-scale battery and storage project in Kenosha County.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The president also mentioned Siemens will open in Kenosha County, with a plant that will make solar inverters.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s visit is his first to Wisconsin during the 2024 election cycle.<\/p>\n<p>He won the state by about 20,000 votes in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t talk about the race, or the group of Republicans who will be in Milwaukee next week for their presidential debate.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Biden talked mainly about jobs during his nearly hour-long speech.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI came to Milwaukee to talk about what we\u2019re doing to bring manufacturing back home,\u201d the president said to a round of applause. \u201cIt\u2019s about our progress. Building an economy from the middle out, and the bottom up. Not the top down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President Biden\u2019s visit did not go without opposition.<\/p>\n<p>The group Americans for Prosperity in Wisconsin was outside the president\u2019s speech, offering its own version of Bidenomics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom higher gas prices to more expensive groceries, we can\u2019t afford it anymore,\u201d the group said.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin is one of the key battleground states in 2024. Politicos in the state have said that whoever wins Wisconsin could very well win the White House.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post originally appeared at https:\/\/www.wisconsinrightnow.com\/biden-touts-jobs-manufacturing-in-milwaukee-visit\/ On paper, the Biden Administration said the president was&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":871,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4969","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-wi-right-now"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4969","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/70"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4969"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4969\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4971,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4969\/revisions\/4971"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/871"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4969"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4969"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4969"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
