GM and LG announce plans to build a $2.3 billion battery plant near the closed Lordstown facility
The joint venture will employ 1,100 workers. During the recent contract talks with the United Auto Workers union during the GM strike, the automaker offered to have this plant be represented by the union. But GM CEO Mary Barra said Thursday whether or not workers are in the union will be up to the workers who are hired.Groundbreaking on the plant is expected in the middle of next year, but GM did not give a time frame for when it will start to hire workers and open the plant.
Barra pointed out that the workers at Lordstown who lost their jobs had been offered positions at other GM plants. Thousands have taken those jobs. But they had to relocate in order to work in plants in Michigan, Tennessee and Texas. Many moved away from their families during the week and expressed displeasure about the fact that GM didn't agree to union demands to keep the plant open.
