Just wait until you hear what Joe has planned for China!
E&E News (5/3/21) reports: "An announcement by General Motors Co. that it would invest more than $1 billion at a Mexican factory that will build electric vehicles has angered the United Auto Workers union. GM said Thursday in Spanish on its Mexican website that it would make the investment at its Ramos Arizpe plant, which will become its fifth factory to make battery-powered vehicles. Three others are in the U.S., with another in Canada. UAW Vice President Terry Dittes says in a statement that the investment comes as GM is asking the U.S. government to subsidize EV purchases. He calls the investment a slap in the face to American workers and says GM vehicles sold in the U.S. should be made in the country, employing Americans. 'Taxpayer money should not go to companies that utilize labor outside the U.S. while benefiting from American government subsidies,' Dittes said. 'This is not the America any of us signed on for.'"
