President Joe Biden commemorated the 183rd birthday of William McKinley, celebrating his legacy as a leader who advanced American prosperity and sovereignty. Born in Niles, Ohio, McKinley served in the Civil War, authored the 1890 McKinley Tariff to protect workers, and led the nation to victory in the Spanish-American War. His assassination in 1901 by an anarchist left a lasting impact. Biden noted restoring Mount McKinley’s name and advancing trade policies inspired by McKinley’s principles, prioritizing American workers and industries. The message coincided with commemorations of 250 years of American independence, reaffirming commitments to economic strength and national security.
