Debate over bailout for auto industry coming to Statehouse
The debate over bailing out the domestic auto industry may be coming to the Ohio Statehouse.
State Sen. Dale Miller, D-Cleveland, said on Wednesday, Nov. 26, that next week he will introduce a resolution “concerning support for the U.S. automotive industry.” The resolution is expected to encourage Congress to support a financial bailout for the troubled industry.
“America cannot lose its domestic automotive industry,” Miller said in a press release. “Too many jobs are at stake and we cannot be a great nation without a strong manufacturing base. We must take decisive action to help and require our domestic manufacturers to do their part to get their house in order.”
Miller said he would introduce the resolution on Wednesday, Dec. 3. Such resolutions aren’t legally binding but are used to show Congress what voters back home are thinking.
Representatives from the auto industry and labor unions will join him at a Wednesday press conference at 11:45 a.m. at the Statehouse, Miller said.
