#shorts On 4/21/2023, Biden again told a story about oil slicks on his windshield, but changed a few key details. “Well, I grew up in Claymont, Delaware, which is just on the Pennsylvania line. At the time I was growing up there in an area called Brookview Apartments, there were more oil refineries in that neck of the woods, in that southeast corner of Pennsylvania than in Houston, Texas.

And I went to school about a half — quarter mi- — a mile up the road on a thing called the Philadelphia Pike. And Mom used to drive us up because it was a very busy highway, and would drop us off. And on those days early on when there’d be the first frost, you’d turn on the windshield wipers — not a joke — and there’d be an oil slick on the window. Literally, an oil slick on the front windshield.

And how many folks across the country have had similar experiences? You know, we know public health impacts of toxins in air and water. And there’s real — real effects. Listen, I think it’s one of the reasons I had childhood asthma. So many people in that area — we had one of the highest cancer rates in the nation”
