Trump and Sen. Dave McCormick team up to promote energy and tech investments in Pennsylvania

  • By SEUNG MIN KIM and MARC LEVY Associated Press

 President Donald Trump and Sen. David McCormick of Pennsylvania are touting tens of billions of dollars of energy and tech investments at a new summit focusing on energy and innovation. "This is a really triumphant day for the people of the commonwealth and the United States of America," Trump said Tuesday as he took the stage at the summit. Pennsylvania is a swing state critical to Trump's wins in 2016 and 2024, and is at the forefront of his energy agenda. On a panel discussion, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said the Trump administration won't let the U.S. lose the artificial intelligence race. Participating companies at the conference include Blackstone, Bridgewater, SoftBank, Amazon Web Services and ExxonMobil.
