Under pressure from Trump, GM in talks to sell idled Ohio plant via ReutersTV
WASHINGTON/TORONTO - Under pressure from President Donald Trump, General Motors Co said on Wednesday it was in talks to sell an idled northeast Ohio plant to a cash-strapped electric truck-building company.
“This is a step, but we have a long way to go,” DeWine told reporters. He also cited Workhorse’s ongoing efforts to win a truck supply contract with the U.S. Postal Service as a key step. GM is not reversing the bulk of its restructuring efforts, including its decision to slash 15 percent of its salaried workforce and end vehicle production at three North American plants, including Lordstown. Last week, GM ended production at a plant near Baltimore that built transmissions.
The fate of the Lordstown plant has been a big focus of Trump’s. He spoke to Barra earlier on Wednesday before the Detroit company announced its plans in Canada.
