He stands with us in fighting to help our American automakers and autoworkers make it through this recession, which has led car sales to plunge.
He's also standing with our Michigan communities and families who have been affected by the restructuring in the manufacturing sector, which has caused more job loss than any natural disaster in our nation's history. While Hurricane Katrina wiped out a quarter of a million jobs, we in Michigan will have lost more than three times that many jobs due to the economic storm surrounding our manufacturing base. http://michigan.gov/documents/gov/Gov191Full_273762_7.mp3
