Ahead of President Biden’s visit to Wolfspeed, a semiconductor manufacturer in Durham, North Carolina, today kicking off his Investing in America tour, North Carolina Democratic Party Chair Anderson Clayton released the following statement: 

“President Biden’s economic plan prioritizes American manufacturers like Wolfspeed, which will put more money into the pockets of North Carolina families with record job growth, strengthen our supply chains, and drive our clean energy future. While every single North Carolina U.S. House Republican voted against investing in a Made-In-America chip industry, Democrats are making historic progress that will poise workers, communities, and businesses to win the race for the 21st century. Rural North Carolina does not continue to survive without record investment like this, and our Party remains hopeful in rebuilding rural economies across our state with investment from this administration.”
