What Future Does The US Auto Industry Have?

Jack Lessenberry Politics & Prejudices

Metro Detroit is the place that put the world on wheels. Eleven years ago, there was a very real possibility that the domestic auto industry might not survive. Now, after billions to bail out the industry, a confusing landscape of what does “American Made” really mean, the growth of electric and driverless cars, and the far-reaching scandal in the UAW, where do we go from here and how will it impact this country and the “Motor City?” Joining me is Kristin Dziczek, VP of industry, labor, and economics for the non-profit Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor. She has degrees in economics, public policy, and engineering, all from the University of Michigan, and is one of the most quoted automotive policy analysts in America.
