Vice President JD Vance and EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin Visit South Carolina
In a significant outreach, U.S. Vice President JD Vance will travel to South Carolina this week, accompanied by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin. The duo is set to visit the Nucor Steel manufacturing facility in Huger, a move highlighted in an official release from the Trump administration.
During their visit, Vance and Zeldin are scheduled to deliver remarks emphasizing the ongoing manufacturing renaissance under the first 100 days of the Trump administration. Nucor Steel, which has been operational for 30 years, is known for its substantial employment, boasting around 1,000 workers and an additional 350 contractors. The facility recently announced plans to launch a new production line, potentially creating 50 more jobs.
While Vance’s visit is framed as non-political, its timing in early-voting South Carolina—the site of the pivotal 2028 presidential primary—raises eyebrows. Current polling positions Vance as a leading contender for the Republican nomination, although shifts in Trump’s approval ratings could influence this dynamic.
Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
