LANSING, Mich. (June 10, 2025) — Senate Majority Leader Winnie Brinks (D-Grand Rapids) issued the following statement in response to General Motors’ announcement of a multi-billion-dollar investment and thousands of new auto jobs in Michigan:
“Thousands of good jobs and billions of dollars in investment are coming to Michigan thanks to one of our longest and most valued employers: GM. I am delighted by this news. Our hardworking and dedicated workforce, vibrant neighborhoods where people want to put down roots, and major advancements in economic policy make our state the natural place to make such a transformative investment.
