Obama: Outsourcing Americans jobs since January 2009.
>From WFB <http://freebeacon.com/from-janesville-to-jilin/>:
A bailed out General Motors expanded its small truck and SUV manufacturing
in China soon after closing down similar facilities in Janesville,
Wisconsin—the plant Barack Obama
pledged<http://www.cfr.org/us-election-2008/obamas-speech-janesville-wisconsin/p15492>
to
save and keep open for “another hundred years” in 2008.
GM has increased its manufacturing capacity in China by 55 percent since
emerging from bankruptcy thanks to a $50 billion bailout from taxpayers. An
important piece of that increased capacity has taken place in Changchun,
Jilin Province in China.
On August 30, 2009, GM entered into a “50-50 joint venture” with China FAW
Group Corp., one of China’s largest automakers. GM’s cash influx helped
boost FAW’s efforts to expand its light duty commercial vehicles and SUV
manufacturing. The partnership sold more than 88,000 vehicles in
2010<http://www.gmchina.com/aboutGM/gmInChina.asp?local=en>
.
The move came four months after GM shuttered its Janesville plant, which
built SUVs like the Chevrolet Suburban. The closure has become a matter of
controversy on the campaign trail after Janesville congressman and
Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan noted the Obama
administration failed to save the plant despite promising to do so on the
campaign trail.
Obama stopped by the Janesville plant in February 2008 while campaigning
for president and pledged to save the jobs of more than 2,000 employees.
“If our government is there to support you, and give you the assistance you
need to re-tool and make this transition…this plant will be here for
another hundred years,” he said.
In October 2008, Obama
reiterated<http://washingtonexaminer.com/article/2506462#.UD-Jgmht0lJ>
his
claims that he would save the GM plant: “As president, I will lead an
effort to retool plants like the GM facility in Janesville so we can build
the fuel-efficient cars of tomorrow and create good-paying jobs in
Wisconsin and all across America.”
