WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden plans to sign an executive order encouraging companies to manufacture new inventions in the U.S. Biden visits Maine on Friday for the first time as president, packaging his signing of the order with a speech at a textile factory and a fundraiser later in Freeport. The Democrat won three of Maine’s four electoral votes in 2020 and wants to shore up support in the state. Maine allocates electoral votes by congressional district. Biden lost in the state’s 2nd District, which provided the only electoral vote in New England for then-President Donald Trump, a Republican. Republican state Rep. Joshua Morris says Biden’s economic policies hurt working people in his district.
