Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-12) today joined President Obama for a tour of the 2016 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, where the President saw firsthand the remarkable progress made by the American auto industry.

“Today, the President saw firsthand that the American auto industry is back, booming and stronger than ever,” said Dingell. “When President Obama took office, we were faced with the very real possibility that there might not be an auto show in 2016. Thanks to the investment he made in the auto industry – and the hard work, grit and determination of the American auto worker – the industry is back and leading the world with developments in research, innovation and technology. It was an honor to be able to thank the President for his leadership in ensuring we maintained that strength and show him that the bet he made on the American auto industry paid off – Michigan and the U.S. will remain in the driver’s seat when it comes to building the best, most innovative cars and trucks in the world.”
