As Michigan manufacturing workers commute to work, they’ll be reminded that Republican candidate Tom Barrett did everything he could in the State Legislature to stop General Motors from bringing 4,000 new manufacturing jobs to Michigan and retaining 1,000 jobs – many of which are in Michigan’s new 7th Congressional district.
The DCCC is announcing a two-week-long billboard campaign calling out Barrett for trying to block bipartisan measures that made possible thousands of manufacturing jobs, a new EV battery plant in Delta Township, and a $2.6 billion investment in the Greater Lansing area.
The billboards will appear just blocks from the State Capitol in Lansing and on I-69 near Royston Road in Potterville – locations that will reach both GM workers and voters across the Lansing area, including Barrett himself, as they commute to work.
Since voting against the measures to make the 5,000 manufacturing jobs possible, Barrett has doubled down on his opposition despite the fact that the game-changing investments are expected to be a boon for mid-Michigan.
