WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is heading to South Carolina to make the case that his economic agenda is helping keep even red states humming. Ahead of the Thursday visit, White House officials argued that if Republicans had their way, South Carolina — like many other Republican-leaning states — would have lost out on billions of dollars in investments and thousands of jobs. Biden during his visit will celebrate a new clean energy manufacturing partnership between solar firm Enphase Energy and manufacturer Flex Ltd. The deal is projected to create 600 jobs in the state and 1,200 more throughout the country.
