For the first time since last November’s election season, JD Vance visited Michigan, this time as the Vice President of the United States. Vance visited Vantage Plastics located in Bay City.
“Now, I have to be honest with you, the road ahead of us is long, but we are already in just seven short weeks, starting to see early indications of the president’s vision becoming our shared American reality,” he said. “This February, the president’s first full month in office, America gained 10,000 American manufacturing jobs.”
“I don’t have to tell anyone here today, when we lose the ability to make our own stuff, we abandon a way of life, one that has sustained towns like Bay City and countless other communities, from Middletown, Ohio [Vance’s hometown], to a ton of communities all across the Midwest.” he said.
