Executive Vice President of Global Manufacturing and Sustainability | Transformative leader forging GM’s path to zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion
For the past 23 years, the Lansing Grand River team has worked together to proudly deliver luxury and high-performance vehicles to customers everywhere. Their performance and commitment have been undeniable. That’s why in 2023, we committed that LGR would be a vital part General Motors electrification strategy, and today we were able to celebrate that GM has been awarded a $500 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to support this team and future. Today underscores our commitment to U.S. leadership in manufacturing and innovation, and I couldn’t be more proud or confident in our team at Lansing Grand River to help lead the way to a future we believe in. Thank you to U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm for attending today’s event and to Troy Comiskey, UAW Local 652 and our entire Lansing Grand River team for all that you do to support our customers, company and community. #IworkforGM #electricvehicles #manufacturing #allelectricfuture
That's better known as Corporate Welfare.
Where is all of this electricity going to come when the Biden Administration has been at war with coal-fired and nuclear power plants?
Why is a company that made $30 billion over the past three years taking taxpayer money?
As someone who was there 23 years ago, as we started LGR, you’re right, JP- real proud moment. Can’t wait to hear what exciting vehicle is going to be made at LGR!
Another waste of millions of our tax dollars $$$$$
Anyone that jumps on the EV bandwagon this late in the game hasn't done any homework and deserves to fail!
What sucks about general motors if you have an idea still listen to you and then they'll tell you you can't profit from it but if you're willing to share with him he'll take it from you
