WisGOP Statement on Joe Biden in Superior

[Superior, WI] – Following Joe Biden’s visit to Superior, the Republican Party of Wisconsin released the following statement from Chairman Paul Farrow:

 “Joe Biden’s public relations stop in Superior only exemplifies why his approval ratings are plummeting – he’s too busy planning photo-ops to focus on the issues that matter. Amid his attacks on mining, threats to pipelines like Line 5 and halting of Keystone XL, and failure to continue American energy independence, no amount of photo-ops will stop rural Wisconsinites from leaving the Democrat Party in droves.”

Background

  • The White House had to backtrack after a spokesperson said that the Biden administration was considering shutting down Line 5.
  • When the Biden administration halted construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, hundreds of Wisconsin jobs were put at risk.
  • In January, the Biden administration canceled mining leases near Minnesota’s iron range.
