President Biden is campaigning here in our state, as Wisconsin is considered a critical battleground state in this election year.
The president highlighted his role in jump-starting a three-point-three billion dollar investment by Microsoft to build a new artificial intelligence data center in Racine. The project is expected to create more than four-thousand jobs.
The data center will be built on the same land where electronics manufacturer Foxconn had planned to build a ten-billion dollar factory during the Trump administration, which ultimately never materialized. Biden took a shot at Donald Trump over the failure, claiming that “Foxconn turned out to be just that: A con.”
