Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer issued the following statement after General Motors announced plans to create the new jobs.

“This is great news for our hardworking UAW members, their families, and the entire Lansing community. Everyone knows the best vehicles on the road are made by the industry’s best workforce right here in Michigan.

We are making strides every single day to cement Michigan’s status as a world leader in mobility, and we will continue to work with our partners to keep our foot on the gas,” said Whitmer.
