President Joe Biden lambasted conservative firebrand Rep. Lauren Boebert an event in Pueblo on Wednesday to tout job creation on her home turf — credited to a law she opposed.
Biden, struggling with low job approval ratings and continuing concerns about the state of the economy as he gears up for his reelection campaign next year, went directly after Boebert and her fellow Republicans in Congress.
He made his remarks after touring CS Wind, a Pueblo, Colo., wind tower manufacturer that is using tax incentives from Democrats’ 2022 budget reconciliation law to help its expansion. The White House says the company will add an estimated 850 new jobs in Colorado by 2026.
