Save the Plant and Help Save the Planet: Build Zero-Emission Vehicles at Lordstown
For over 52 years workers at the Lordstown GM Assembly Plant have massively contributed to the success of GM through their hard work and dedication in building quality products. To end that proud legacy with plant closure would be an American tragedy. To allow another grave existential threat, accelerating climate change, to go unchecked would be a tragedy for all humanity. Why not avoid both tragedies with one liberating action? Why not convert the former Home of the Cruze into a future Home for all-electric GM Cruise models? Why not save the plant and help save the planet at the same time? Allocate a zero-emission vehicle or two to GM Lordstown asap. It is the right thing to do, environmentally, economically, and morally.
Why is this important?
Closure of the GM Lordstown Assembly Plant would be a disaster for thousands of working families and scores of communities in NE Ohio. The most viable option to prevent plant closure is to echo the call by GM for a zero-emission future through mass production of long-range all-electric vehicles and call for the allocation of the cars of the future at Lordstown.
