The $1.6bn Biden-era plan for a gas-powered blast furnace at a steel mill in Middletown, Ohio, is indefinitely on hold

A Biden-era plan to implement a gas-powered blast furnace at a steel mill in Ohio, which would have eliminated tons of greenhouse gases from the local environment year over year and created more than a thousand jobs, has been put on hold indefinitely by the Trump administration.

Experts and locals say the setback could greatly affect the health and financial state of those living around the mill.

    Steelmaking is essential.

    If that’s the case we should nationalize it and quit giving taxpayer money to these billion dollars leeches

    it was a good investment by the Biden administration.

    No, it was naked corruption in the face of rising fascism that moderate Dems were too busy giving kickbacks to their friends to effectively prevent
