Stabenow Reaction to GE Opening Advanced Manufacturing Technology Center in Visteon Village
 
Birmingham – Today, U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow made the following statement regarding the announcement by GE that the company will open an advanced manufacturing technology and software center at Visteon Village in Van Buren Township. Senator Stabenow, through meetings with GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt and other officials, worked hard to bring this innovation center to Michigan.

“Michigan has always been about imagination, innovation, and invention – the same qualities that GE is known for today. That’s why GE has chosen to locate this new advanced technology and training center here in Wayne County. This center is a reflection of Michigan’s leadership in the clean energy economy that will not only create good-paying jobs, but will lay the foundation for innovation and economic success for years to come.”
