Vice President JD Vance is in Michigan today to mark the Trump Administration’s unprecedented crackdown on fraud and the comeback of American manufacturing under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump. Since taking office, the Trump Administration has onshored production, restored factory jobs, and put vehicles back on Michigan assembly lines — while delivering tax relief that leaves more money in workers’ pockets and driving a sharp decline in crime across the state.

Record Investments. Record Sales. American Jobs.

Michigan is locking in tens of billions in new capital and thousands of high-paying jobs as companies respond to the Trump Administration’s America First agenda.

• General Motors is investing $6 billion in U.S. manufacturing — including a major expansion at its Orion Township plant — and is onshoring more production to meet demand for American-built vehicles. GM is also adding an overtime shift at Flint as pickup demand surges.
• Ford Motor Company is investing $3 billion in its BlueOval Battery Park in Marshall, creating 1,700 new jobs. Ford added a third shift at the Dearborn Truck Plant as the F-series continues to dominate global pickup sales.
• Stellantis is investing $388 million in a state-of-the-art “megahub” in Van Buren Township, $140 million to expand its Detroit plant, and $100 million to add production at Warren.
• Detroit Diesel is recalling laid-off workers and adding a third shift.
• 2025 marked the strongest year for new vehicle sales since 2019. Ford posted its best annual U.S. sales in six years. General Motors delivered soaring overall volume and its strongest SUV performance in decades. Jeep sales rose for the first time since 2018.

A Broader Manufacturing Boom Across Michigan

Michigan is winning in advanced manufacturing, energy, aerospace, food production, and the infrastructure of the AI economy.

• Adrian Steel is investing $43.4 million to significantly grow its operations.
• American Rheinmetall is investing $31.7 million in its Michigan facilities.

Historic Tax Relief for Michigan Workers and Families

President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts put money back in Michiganders’ pockets.

• No Tax on Social Security: About 1.7 million Michigan seniors benefit from the new senior deduction.
• No Tax on Overtime and No Tax on Tips: Roughly a quarter of Michigan employees regularly work overtime and can benefit — so workers keep more of what they earn.
• Made-in-America Auto Loan Interest: Families who buy a vehicle assembled in the U.S. can deduct the interest — a tax cut that doubles as industrial policy.
• Bigger Refunds: Michigan taxpayers saw average refunds of $3,508.
• Rural Health Investments: Michigan secured about $173 million in first-year Rural Health Transformation Program funding.
• Protecting Jobs and Wages: The Working Families Tax Cuts safeguarded 170,000 Texas jobs, $30 billion in state GDP, and $15 billion in workers’ wages.

Michiganders are Safer

The Trump Administration is making Michigan safe again — and the numbers tell the success.

• So far in 2026, violent offenses are down compared to the same period last year — with homicide down 19%, rape down 18%, and robbery down 17%.
• In 2025, violent crime and motor vehicle thefts all fell compared to the previous year.
• In 2025, Detroit recorded the fewest homicides since 1964 and the first time the city fell below 200 killings in six decades.
