May 6th, 2021, 2:15 pm
President Joe Biden is speaking in Lake Charles, Louisiana on Thursday as part of a push to promote his American Jobs Plan.
The plan would pump out more than $2 trillion in spending on various projects. Those include broadband infrastructure, subsidies for electric vehicles, and renovating infrastructure in a way the White House says would addresses “historic inequities.” It comes as part of Biden’s broader push to stimulate the economy.
The speech was scheduled to take place at 2:25 p.m. Eastern, but Biden managed to kick off closer to 2 p.m.
