特朗普在肯塔基集会宣布:共和党赢下中期选举将向温彻斯特药厂投资1亿美元

美国总统特朗普当地时间10月17日下午在肯塔基州北部的海兰海茨(Highland Heights)举行中期选举竞选集会,为共和党候选人拉票。集会地点在北肯塔基大学校园内的特鲁伊斯特球馆(Truist Arena),数千名支持者涌入现场。这是他两周内第二次造访大辛辛那提地区。
特朗普在演讲中宣布,如果共和党在11月的中期选举中获胜,联邦政府将向肯塔基州温彻斯特(Win chester)的制药公司 Antheia投资1亿美元,用于振兴当地一处大型药品生产设施。他直言,如果民主党获胜,这笔投资将无法成行。
本次集会重点为两位共和党候选人站台:正在角逐参议员麦康奈尔退休后空缺席位的联邦众议员安迪·巴尔(Andy Barr),以及肯塔基州第4国会选区众议员候选人埃德·盖尔雷因(Ed Gallrein)。巴尔的对手是民主党人查尔斯·布克(Charles Booker),该参议院席位被视为全国关注的焦点选战之一。

另据公开信息,国防部战略资本办公室已于同日与 Antheia 签署8,000万美元有条件贷款承诺,用于扩产仿制药关键原料的本土产能。特朗普在集会上所说的1亿美元,属于以选举结果为条件的口头承诺,目前并无相应的拨款文件。

At Kentucky Rally, Trump Says a GOP Midterm Win Means a $100 Million Investment in Winchester Drugmaker
President Trump held a midterm campaign rally on the afternoon of Oct. 17 in Highland Heights in northern Kentucky, campaigning for Republican candidates. The rally filled Truist Arena on the Northern Kentucky University campus with thousands of supporters; it was his second visit to the greater Cincinnati area in two weeks.
In his speech, Trump announced that if Republicans win the November midterm elections, the federal government will invest $100 million in Antheia, a pharmaceutical company in Winchester, Kentucky, to revive a large drug-manufacturing facility there. He said plainly that if Democrats win, the investment will not happen.
The rally spotlighted two Republican candidates: U.S. Rep. Andy Barr, who is running for the Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Mitch McConnell, and Ed Gallrein, a candidate for Kentucky's 4th Congressional District. Barr's opponent is Democrat Charles Booker, and the Senate race is seen as one of the nation's marquee contests.
Separately, the Department of Defense's Office of Strategic Capital signed an $80 million conditional loan commitment with Antheia the same day, aimed at expanding domestic production capacity for key generic-drug ingredients. The $100 million figure Trump cited at the rally is a verbal pledge conditioned on the election outcome; no appropriation document for it has been issued.
Highland Heights sits at Kentucky's northern tip, across the Ohio River from the key swing state of Ohio, where former Senator Sherrod Brown is challenging Republican Senator Jon Husted. Trump said this midterm election is about control of Congress and urged supporters to vote "like I'm on the ballot."
