President Joe Biden is hitting the campaign trail — for the Inflation Reduction Act.

The Biden administration’s education push around the landmark climate law’s investments is in full force this week. They invited reporters on two press calls yesterday to talk about developments in clean energy, and on Thursday, Biden is visiting Westby, Wisconsin, to announce more than $7 billion for solar, wind, transmission and other electrification projects in rural areas across 23 states.

While the White House announces new federal funding nearly every week — and often more than that — Biden himself is rarely involved in those announcements.
