Michigan Democrats threatening to pull $2B tax credit from GM

LANSING (WJBK) - Lansing Democrats are threatening to pull $2 billion dollars in tax credits from General Motors--

In the wake of the automaker's decision to layoff Michigan workers, Michigan Democrats are threatening to pull $2 billion dollars in tax credits from General Motors.

On a scale of 1-10 the impact on this state, State Sen. Morris Hood (D-Detroit) considers this a 10.

"Whenever we lose one job, two jobs, and the amount of jobs we're losing -- I consider it a 10," he said.

Next March, GM's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly plant is history, and in June, the workers at Warren Transmission Operations are also out of work.

Democrats in the Michigan Legislature are now on a mission to repeal the state's $2 billion tax credits for GM. The Senate Democratic leader argues the state, local and federal governments saved GM -- and now this.
