Despite Vice President Kamala Harris’s best efforts to distance herself from the failures of the Biden-Harris administration, a key issue for Rust Belt voters is rearing its ugly head with just 51 days until the 2024 election.
Remember when President Joe Biden touted his electric vehicle mandates as a policy that would be the bridge that brought the auto industry into a future revolving around climate change? Well, this is coming back to bite Harris’s campaign with less than two months until November.
Joe Biden today: “When I think climate, I think jobs”

Auto industry workers face massive layoffs (about 3,000 workers will lose their jobs). They blame the Biden-Harris administration for their misery, claiming that their unsuccessful electric vehicle mandates are why their jobs are at stake. The auto industry in Michigan, a critical swing state for Harris, currently employs about 300,000 union members.
