Republicans attended a welcome back ceremony for auto workers in Tennessee. There was not much rejoicing.
Jesse Russell reports:
Tennessee Republican Bob Corker wasn’t greeted with much enthusiasm during a ceremony welcoming workers back to a Spring Hill, Tennessee auto manufacturing plant.
Corker joined two other Republican lawmakers for the ceremony which saw General Motors welcoming 483 workers back to the plant.
According to online auto magazine Jalopnik. Corker was booed when he claimed to have contributed to helping strengthen the auto industry in the country. Corker, along with the two other Republicans in attendance Senator Lamar Alexander and Rep. Marsha Blackburn, all opposed the Obama Administrations successful auto industry bail out bid.
In March of 2009 Corker called the move a “major power grab.” Alexander said in March of 2009 the bail out was a move in the wrong direction. And Blackburn said in December of 2008 that Obama’s plan wouldn’t make the industry more successful or efficient.
According to Jalopnik an official from the UAW made it clear auto workers will remember at election time the politicians that refused to help the ailing auto industry.
