俄亥俄州奇利科西——总统唐纳德·特朗普在竞选期间承诺要重振美国的制造业。虽然俄亥俄州在这一努力下取得了一些积极成效，但部分支持特朗普的选民认为，这些成果尚不足以缓解席卷全国的物价上涨危机。
CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — President Donald Trump promised on the campaign trail to restore America’s manufacturing industry And while the state of Ohio has seen some promising results of that effort, some of the president’s own voters argue it is not enough to balance out the cost-of-living crisis that is roiling the country.
据圣路易斯联邦储备银行的数据显示，自2025年1月特朗普开始第二任期以来，俄亥俄州的制造业就业岗位增加了1.3万个以上。这一数字与全国整体情况形成鲜明对比：同期全国制造业岗位数量减少了约2.1万个。
The Buckeye State is up more than 13,000 manufacturing jobs since January 2025, the month Trump kicked off his second term, according to the St. Louis Federal Reserve It is a marked contrast to the national manufacturing job numbers, which have seen a decline of about 21,000 jobs during the same period.
“制造业正在复苏，正在回暖，”来自奇利科西的制造业工人、三次投票支持特朗普的安·戴维斯这样说道。
“It’s coming back, it’s coming up,” said Ann Davis, a three-time Trump voter and manufacturing worker from Chillicothe, speaking of manufacturing jobs in the state.
在班布里奇市一家卫生纸厂工作的迈克尔·兰特同样三次投票给特朗普，他表示：“总统确实很好地启动了这一承诺，让事情有了进展。”
Trump “did a pretty good job on getting at least the promise started, getting the ball rolling,” said Michael Lante, a three-time Trump voter from Bainbridge, who works at a toilet paper factory.
“我一生几乎都在从事制造业工作，而总统正在实现这一目标，”来自奇利科西、原本是民主党支持者、2024年转而投票给特朗普的马克·梅茨格说道。
“I’ve worked in manufacturing pretty much all my life, and he’s getting that. He’s getting that done,” said Mark Metzger, a lifelong Democrat from Chillicothe who voted for Trump in 2024.
不过，许多支持特朗普的选民认为，新增的就业岗位仍不足以应对伊朗战争引发的经济压力。
But many of these Trump voters do not believe the new job opportunities provide enough to contend with economic strains brought on by the war with Iran.
美国全国广播公司财经频道今年9月报道称，自4月以来，通货膨胀率一直高于工资涨幅。“大量美国人的生活状况正在恶化，他们的收入赶不上物价的上涨速度，”海军联邦信用合作社的首席经济学家希瑟·朗对媒体说道。
CNBC reported in September that inflation has been outpacing wage growth since April. “A substantial number of Americans are worse off, their incomes are not keeping up with the price increases right now,” Heather Long, chief economist at Navy Federal Credit Union, told the outlet.
“我们需要更多工作岗位，需要更多机会，”24岁的汉娜·霍尔说道。她在家乡斯普林菲尔德一直未能找到工厂工作，目前只能靠送杂货维持生计。
“We need more jobs. We need more opportunities,” said Hannah Hall, 24, who has not been able to land a factory gig in her hometown of Springfield. The single mother currently works delivering groceries instead.
“我觉得对于我们大多数人来说，即便有工作，生活也并不算好。我们只是勉强维持生计，完全是靠工资过活，”霍尔说道。“我有孩子，我很担心等我老了之后他们会面临怎样的处境。我也清楚情况只会越来越糟糕，生活成本也会越来越高。”
“I feel like with the jobs that most of us have, you’re not really living that great. Like, you’re just barely getting by. It’s like living paycheck to paycheck,” said Hall. “I have kids, and I worry about what’s going to happen to them when I get old. And I just know it’s only going to get worse and worse and more unaffordable.”
霍尔在2024年把票投给了特朗普，如今她对此深感后悔。当被问及会给当年的自己什么建议时，她说：“千万别投票给特朗普。我当时应该做更多调查，而不只是听周围人的传言就做决定。我当时只听了身边人的话，凭直觉投票，而没有自己做判断。”霍尔居住的斯普林菲尔德市近期遭遇了与俄亥俄州制造业整体发展趋势相悖的情况：国际汽车公司上周解雇了工厂里的1000多名员工。
Hall voted for Trump in 2024, a decision she now deeply regrets. Asked what advice she might give her former self, she said, “Don’t vote for Trump. I would probably do a lot more research, rather than just going off what I’m hearing, like word of mouth, because that’s what I did. I just listened to the people that were around me, and I voted based off that instead of my own instinct.”Springfield, where Hall lives, recently suffered a blow contrary to the general trend of the manufacturing sector in Ohio. International Motors laid off more than 1,000 workers from its factory last week.
这家工厂最近被加拿大国防制造商罗谢尔收购，后者在声明中表示计划重新雇佣部分员工，并有望在未来逐步将当地员工人数翻倍，不过具体时间表尚未确定。
The plant was recently purchased by Roshel, a Canadian defense manufacturer, which said in a statement that it plans to hire back workers and potentially to double the local workforce over time, though the exact timetable remains unclear.
斯普林菲尔德就业市场的这种反复无常状况与南边1个半小时车程外的奇利科西市如出一辙。2025年，奇利科西的皮克塞尔造纸厂解雇了约800名员工。本月，皮克塞尔宣布计划重新雇佣部分员工，还有人提议将工厂的一部分改造成数据中心——不过在当前俄亥俄州的政治环境下，这类数据中心项目颇具争议。
The topsy-turvy nature of Springfield’s job market echoes that of Chillicothe, an hour and a half south. There, the Pixelle paper factory laid off about 800 workers in 2025. This month, Pixelle announced plans to rehire a portion of the workforce, and there has been discussion of turning part of the plant into a data center — but such centers are a contentious topic in Ohio’s current political landscape.
“我的意思是，短期内这能带来一些建筑类工作，但之后还需要这么多人吗？”来自奇利科西、曾三次投票给特朗普的迈克尔·汉弗莱问道。
“I mean, it’ll bring a few construction jobs for a while, but then what do you need people for?” questioned Michael Humphrey, a three-time Trump voter from Chillicothe.
特朗普执政后推行的制造业振兴政策确实帮助了俄亥俄州，但一些选民认为这仍远远不够。
