However, key swing states are still hurting from the closing down of manufacturing factories. <\/p>\n<p>In Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, 39,000 manufacturing jobs have been lost in the past five years. Manufacturing levels in these states haven\u2019t recovered since 2019. <\/p>\n<p>Most of those jobs have gone to China, Mexico, and states in the South and West. <\/p>\n<p>Loss of factories has been detrimental to communities like Milwaukee, which shuttered its 85-year-old Master Lock Co. factory last week. Just a decade ago, that factory\u2019s workers would bring home $100,000 a year.  <\/p>\n<p>The factory resided in 30th Street Industrial Corridor, a strip consisting of factories that drew in thousands of black families, which consist of 38.6% of the population. Currently, the unemployment rate of Milwaukee\u2019s black population is 9.3%.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMilwaukee remains the most deeply distressed city in the country for African Americans,\u201d Marc Levine, a University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee economic development expert told Bloomberg. <\/p>\n<p>The inability of manufacturing jobs to recover could have ill-fated consequences for Biden come November; in 2020, Wisconsin was decided by only 20,682 votes. <\/p>\n<p>Levine said that 80% to 90% of factory jobs in the metro area were once in the city, but now, the city\u2019s share has fallen to less than a quarter.<\/p>\n<p>However, in December, the Biden administration announced that 30th Street Industrial Corridor is a finalist for a $50 million federal grant to rehabilitate old factory sites and create new apprenticeships. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis kind of factory closure is exactly the reason President Biden is investing in communities that have been hollowed out by Congressional Republicans\u2019 trickle-down economics,\u201d White House spokesman Michael Kikukawa said in a statement to <em>Bloomberg<\/em>. The $50 million grant that Milwaukee is a finalist for would create \u201cgood-paying jobs and economic opportunity,\u201d he said. \u201cThis manufacturing boom is disproportionately benefiting communities that have too often been left behind \u2014 like Milwaukee\u2019s 30th Street Corridor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prior to the pandemic, 43,000 jobs were lost under former President Donald Trump \u2013 with 20,000 of them in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Biden has overseen the recovery of all pandemic-related factory job losses on a national level, with over 146,000 additional workers in U.S. manufacturing compared to five years ago.
