Debbie and President Biden both know that Michigan’s innovation is going to lead America’s electric vehicle manufacturing boom. With Michigan’s limitless manufacturing potential, Michigan workers are going to lead the way in clean energy production and electric vehicle manufacturing.

 

Secretary of Transportation Buttigieg announced this week that Michigan was awarded a massive federal grant to help rebuild a highway that divided Detroit communities and hurt small businesses.

 

Here’s what Biden had to say when he was in Michigan earlier this week: “For most of the last century, [America] led the world — and it’s by significant margin, and — because we invested in our people, we invested in ourselves.”

 

Debbie has been working hard in Congress to make sure we invest in Michigan workers, Michigan manufacturing, and Michigan innovation. Thanks to her hard work, Michigan will receive funding to create good-paying jobs to retool factories, build charging stations, manufacture electric vehicles, and invest in research and development.
