This story was a celebration of the first car coming off the line in the Lordstown Chevrolet-GM plant, the car the Chevy Cruz. It is a high mileage car, I believe the highest mileage car GM ever produced. It is a relatively inexpensive car. They expect it to be a huge seller all over the United States. It is a good economy car with a lot to it that recommends itself. I am not here to endorse the car or even endorse the company. I am here to say that this celebration was a direct result of what the Presiding Officer and others in this body and the President of the United States did a year and a half ago.
