In Lansing, Mich., GM sees the future - By Tim Martin, AP
UAW and community leaders say they are hopeful GM will add to its Lansing investments, bringing in more work as the automaker downsizes nationally and considers consolidating its operations in large regional manufacturing centers.
A UAW representative and a plant manager were in China last week, trying to drum up more business for its Lansing factories in association with GM facilities in Asia.
"We're a mere shell of what we had before here," said Chris "Tiny" Sherwood, president of UAW Local 652 in Lansing. "But if you look at the new plants, we've got something to build on. We've got a future here in Lansing, as far as anyone can see into the future."------------------------------------------- posted 9:18 AM :: reference link ::
