Vice Presidential Nominee, Senator JD Vance, will deliver remarks in Waterford, Michigan on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at 6:00PM EDT. 

 

The auto industry is the backbone of Michigan, and a wave of layoffs is fueling outrage among workers in the Great Lakes State. They rightfully blame the Harris-Biden administration's overreaching electric vehicle mandates for gutting jobs and threatening their livelihoods.  

 

In recent weeks, Stellantis, the company behind Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge, announced a staggering 2,450 layoffs at its Warren plant. While industry jobs in the state have been declining since 1990, Michigan auto workers know the Harris administration’s green agenda is the cause of the latest round of job cuts. 

 

Ford is also feeling the pinch, slashing over 1,000 jobs at its Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn. The company drastically cut back production of the F-150 Lightning, an all-electric pickup truck. Between the stringent emission standards and lack of consumer demand, companies are being set up for failure. The "clean energy economy" is proving to be nothing more than a job-killing fantasy that’s putting hardworking Michiganders out of work.  

 

Despite the negative impacts, Kamala Harris has continued to support her administration’s misguided energy policies. President Trump and Senator Vance will save the auto industry in Michigan and restore prosperity in the state. President Trump strengthened our economy once before, and he will do it again when he is re-elected on November 5.
