Levin Calls for Apollo Class Program to Help Michigan Manufacturers

The Lansing State Journal reports that Sen. Carl Levin urged Congress to pursue "an Apollo-type program" on Wednesday to help the manufacturing sector in Michigan battle a loss of jobs overseas. Levin said a series of steps would be needed to help deal with the nation's loss of about 3 million manufacturing jobs since the middle of 2000 including changes to the tax code, help on rising health care costs, targeting foreign currency manipulation and incentives for automakers to build advanced hybrid and diesel engines and hydrogen fuel cells.
