GM CEO Mary Barra To Meet With Joe Biden To Discuss Economic Recovery

General Motors CEO Mary Barra will meet with president-elect Joe Biden today to discuss post-pandemic economic recovery in the United States.

According to Bloomberg, Barra will join Biden on a video meeting Monday to discuss how business and labor sectors of American companies can work together to streamline the economic recovery process in a post-pandemic world. Also on the call will be Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, UAW president Rory Gamble and AFL-CIO leader Richard Trumka.

The publication says Biden plans to discuss “how workers and businesses can operate safely to rebuild the economy amid the coronavirus downturn.” Biden’s transition team also sees the economy and COVID-19 as being intertwined and believes that in order for the economy to recover, it must first control the spread of COVID-19.

GM reopened its manufacturing plants in late May and has implemented various safety measures at the plants to help curb the spread of COVID-19 and ensure the facilities can remain operational. These measures, which include fever screening employees and wiping down surfaces between shift rotations, were outlined in a 40-page employee playbook that it distributed to U.S. employees.

Biden’s campaign team previously touted a “Buy American” manufacturing plan that would include a $400 billion procurement investment that “will power new demand for American products, materials, and services and ensure that they are shipped on U.S.-flagged cargo carriers.” It also plans to set aside $300 billion for research and development on “breakthrough technologies” including “electric vehicle technology to lightweight materials to 5G and artificial intelligence,” which it says will “unleash high-quality job creation in high-value manufacturing and technology.”

These investments will help create “at least 5 million new jobs in manufacturing and innovation,” the president-elect’s transition team predicts.

Biden and Barra in 2014

GM issued a statement following Biden’s victory in the 2020 election and said that it is looking forward to working with the administration to expand U.S. manufacturing presence as it begins to transition to electric vehicles.

“We look forward to working with the new administration and incoming Congress on policies that support our customers, dealers and employees, help strengthen our manufacturing presence in the United States and advance our vision of an all-electric, zero-emissions future,” the automaker said previously.

  1. GM is likely now an expert on working safely during the pandemic so I expect this could be a fruitful conversation. Also, an electric Corvette would be hot.

    1. Biden is not the President-Elect until it can be certified in December if he wins the contested states. This meeting is premature at best.

        The proper title is President-Elect Joe Biden. Anything else would be disrespectful.

  2. Joe Biden will kill the US Economy if he goes through with the policies he ran on which includes killing the Trump tax cut which means higher taxes for everyone in the country, higher corporate taxes and doubling the capital gains tax which will kill the stock market because the US government will want 40 cents of every dollar profit; this will mean it will be more difficult for new companies to get the money needed to start up.

        What are you talking about? More like SAVING American, MILLIONS of Americans, when he stopped flights from CHYNA when this chyna-flu was breaking out, everyone was against it & every head democRAT was crying xenophobe racist for him doing this, then they ate their words when they saw that it was the very best thing to do at that time. Do you not know that Trump setup the taskforce with your hero fauci & his best student, the scarf Birx, as the main people there, Trump was having daily meetings to get companies & orgs to make PPE, ventilators & a vaccine, all this while trying to keep his great economy going, I saw all this in real time, were you asleep through all 2020? Oh wait you were likely watching garbage cnn/msm where they take every good thing The Don does & focus on any little negative they can find. Stop watching that trash, they’re doing a real number on you.

      2. Wow, you showed up on this post, no surprise. Covid-19 has a 99% survivability rate. He never refused to acknowledge Covid-19, he got it himself. Are you living under a rock? He did a lot to minimize the impact. Remember when he cutoff travel from China late January and all the dems like Pelosi called him a xenophobe? They advised us to go into New York and celebrate Chinese New Year and go to China Town in San Fran? They criticized him up and down the news.

        Did you remember that one?

        Do you remember he had the largest mobilization since WW2? Do you remember when he sent in the USS Mercy to NY Harbor and opened up Javit Center and Tents to deal with patients they never saw?

        Did you remember that one? No, because you watch MSLSD.

        1. Someone needs to present some truth. If Trump has done so much to eliminate Covid-19 from the country, why are daily records being set in both positive cases and deaths? Meanwhile, he spouts how much of a non-issue it is.

          Why did he accept special treatment for Covid when he hasn’t provided that for 250k other Americans?

          He’s doing nothing to help Americans beat out Covid-19. Someday you’ll realize that. Hopefully it’s not due to losing a loved one from it.

          1. “why are daily records being set in both positive cases and deaths? ” – The number of tests being done and potentially falsified +Covid-19 cause of death reports to collect relief payment.

            you could ask Elon Musk what he thinks, 2 positive 2 negative out of 4 consecutive tests with same test same nurse.

The ONLY mask that has a prayer is an N95 mask that is completely unavailable to the public Including Construction Laborers etc forced now to breath in toxic dust on job sites in the middle of a Residential Building boom risking all kinds of lung diseases FAR MORE SERIOUS than Covid.

          1. The country that lined China Joe’s pocketbook is responsible for every CCP Virus death around the globe. Yet no one dares to mention it let alone hold Communist China accountable or punish them. Except perhaps Peter Navarro who’d make a much better President than Joe Biden.

            China Joe plans to restore our relationship with China to its lucrative (for him and China) crooked past glory during the Obama years. Reaffirming a Globalist New World Order built upon offshoring American jobs and further entrenching Communist China as the dominant global superpower is exactly where we’re headed with Hidin’ Biden – and Democrats are once again creaming their jeans since their Crowned Prince Barack Hussein’s back to dominating the “news” cycle. Welcome to four more years of Obama era nightmares and endless coverage of Barack and Wookie’s snarky disgust for working-class Americans by adoring mainstream media propagandists – all hail media’s sweetheart anti-American ex-Presidential power couple who continue to grow rich beyond belief for selling out our country!

            1. China is going to turn it’s back on Biden and the US.

              Xi Jinping has bigger plans
              China and 14 other Asia-Pacific nations agreed on the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) — that links an estimated 2.2 billion people and about a third of the world’s gross domestic product (GDP) and excludes the U.S.

              Xi Jinping’s “Made in China 2025” program and his push to remove the dollar from the world currency is meant to do one thing, take over the world! China is now using it’s own digital currency, the digital Renminbi (RMB) and pushing US companies like McD’s, Starbucks, Subway, Walmart and other global (US) leaders into using the system.

              1. Our traitorous Democrat Globalist “leaders” have fully backed this from the start as have many RINOs. They have sold out their country and left it in shambles while growing personal fortunes beyond belief.

                Yet so many fools continue to support those who nail shut the USA’s coffin. It is US consumer spending that has ultimately thrust China to its dominant and aggressive position with the help of unscrupulous corporate CEOs who traded short term profitability for end-term devastation.

                Trump is our only protection from the Great Reset and it’s looking like he will be defrocked regardless of whether the ballot counts prove him our legitimate President. It is inexcusable that we’ve allowed things to devolve to this point. We need to start looking at a Peter Navarro Presidency to buttress and protect whatever’s left come 2024.

                1. The credit system may already be in place, you know of it today as your “credit score”.

                  They are playing all of us, think about it, the “score” as if we are all playing a game to “win”. How can your “score” go up just by going to 🐮moo.com? Because now they have your identity and can try and make a buck off you (you are now worth more) to the lenders.

                  On the flip side if you pay off a credit debt, home or auto loan your “score” goes down. Really? same person with the same income (with more equity in their assets). Does that not free up more dough for any new expenses?

                  Could it be that you’ve lowered the interest income the banks are making off of you and they want it back? So taking another loan or charging up the credit cards will make them happy again. They will “reward” you with a higher “credit score”?

                  Who is really “SCORING” off the credit score system?

                    “The need for global cooperation and this acceleration of change will both be drivers of the Great Reset. And I see this as an unprecedented opportunity,” said von der Leyen.

    FYI, for the electoral college to be cast, each state legislature has to sign off on it. FYI, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona all have republican legislators. And given most republicans are claiming the election was stollen, and that Sidney Powell has “more than enough proof and incriminating evidence and claims hundreds will be going to jail, yeah, Biden ain’t getting 270 college points

        2. Who cares about tax returns. Candidate Joe Biden has been on a government salary for 47 years. How did he amass a net worth of over 9 million dollars? Books deals? Who’s buying his books? Your bozo-ness never ceases to amaze.

  5. Trump and Biden are both bad, neither of them are a good choice. But I just hope Biden doesn’t put us into the next recession. Biden winning the election honestly scares me, I’m afraid to spend money right now.

  6. I would rather have a twitter tweeting orange skinned man, than someone who’s going to throw us into a Great Depression. And IF Biden does throw us into a recession or depression, best believe there will be wars. There has been a war after every economic depression in history, WITHOUT FAIL. I’m honestly scared Biden will put us into economic depression and then into war.

      1. But Joe Biden scares me. How can I be calm when I’m scared? Those are opposing emotions. If you can show me how to be scared and calm at the same time, I’ll do it.

        Also I thought this was the land of the free, where people are free to express their political opinions. In communist China they will execute you for speaking against the government. Are you telling me you want communism?

  9. Well, Biden was VP assisting with bring the US out of a huge recession in 2009. Slow and gradual.

    Trump plunged the US into our current event nomic situation due to his lack of leadership and bringing the country together.

    Go spend your money as the US should be far more stable without Trump in charge.

    1. If Joe Biden is enforcing 62% tax in California and New York, then that means businesses will start cutting costs. That scares me. I’m not spending any money until Joe Biden is gone. Joe Biden scares me the way the Devil scares me.

      1. Well, you’re referencing two specific states and their tax, ie: STATE TAX. This has nothing to do with the federal government or Biden.

        If you live in either state, talk to your governor.

        Reply
  10. Well to be objective Joe is not going to raise taxes on mid income just the upper 40%.

    Then the 40% will move and move their money to tax friendly states like TX. This will drive the states like California to raise state taxes on everyone for the short fall.

    Joe also after not raising taxes will roll back the Trump tax cuts so we all will pay mor3 taxes.

    Then the $15 min wage will raise cost to all of us when ever we shop.

    The increase in corporations paying more tax will get passed on to us also in the form of higher price.

    More social programs will be added and the burden will be on all of us.

    The real question is what will he do with China? He in the past said China was not a problem? Well they are a major threat to the dollar and want to replace the Dollar as the global standard. This is not even debating the Hunter Computer.

    Then the Paris accord is a major issue on mfg in our country. Signing on directs other countries saying what we can or can’t do eviromentaly. This is very dangerous. Only we as a country should decide what we can or cannot do here as it will impact our economy. Many of these countries will use this as a weapon.

    We will it crash but growth will be slowed and the numbers we have seen recently will not continue in GDP post virus.

    I expect wen things continue to slow and not regain growth they will just blame Trump and the virus when many of the new taxes and regulations will be playing a major roll.

    A strong mfg base and jobs build an economy not more social programs.

    Also we will have to create jobs for the increased immigration which will be difficult. Many of the jobs force to $15 will be replaced. When ordering a burger a computer board you type it on will replace the worker.

    1. Yes I agree the tax increase is for the rich. But what people don’t realize is that the poor depend on the rich for their jobs. So now Joe Biden wants to increase the minimum wage to $15USD AND increase taxes to 60% for the rich. What’s going to happen is the rich will simply move their businesses to lower tax states and the poor will start losing their jobs because the rich won’t be able to afford the wage increase and the tax increases at the same time. I used to be a Liberal but then I realized taxing the rich doesn’t help the poor. Building schools and businesses help the poor.

      Just for reference Canada increased minimum wage to $15 CAD just a couple years ago. But guess what happened right after? The cost of rent went up, the cost of food went up, basically THE COST OF EVERYTHING WENT UP to compensate for the increase in minimum wage. So technically all it did was create inflation, increasing minimum wage didn’t help anyone. Damn it, EVEN THE PRICE OF MCDONALDS MEAL WENT UP after minimum wage went to $15 CAD. Increasing minimum wage is simply creating INFLATION on the dollar, it DOES NOT increase the quality of life for the poor.

    1. I cringe whenever I hear GM say “All electric future” like a parrot. While I agree that there will be a healthy market for EVs, the lack of a charging infrastructure and range anxiety will keep the market capped for the foreseeable future. This is in addition to powerful oil and gas lobby.

          Joe needs to fix the Bridges that did not get shovel ready the first 8 years of Joe.

          The government needs to be no part of building charging stations.

          Right now Battery tech is moving fast so many are holding back to invest. The best bet is a battery that charges in the time of a fill of gas. In that case every gas station will start changing pumps to chargers.

          Government can not fix everything.

  14. Does Joe know anything about small business? I doubt it. The government does not provide those jobs only jobs that create bureaucracies and pays their emps with tax dollars. Yes, I support big companies but our small businesses are what built this country into a strong capitalistic economy. Small businesses keep the economy going, people fed. tax base full, and families happy If the feds knew that there would be no lockdowns for businesses. Smart business owners will do everything within their power to protect their “baby” as well as customers and employees. They do not need a government idiot telling them how to do that. As for tax increases on the rich…I have several clients with lots and lots of money who provide thousands of jobs, support families, pay for kids colleges…you know…help people by doing and not just talking. I have a few small business owners who make about 500k a year. They pay more than their fair share in taxes and Joey wants them to pay more. The gov should stop spending and wasting so much instead of making productive people pay for their screwups.

  15. C8.R and CAMRON are right. What they said plus jobs moving overseas as corporate tax increases. Stock holders want to see good returns and will force overseas jobs as we saw under the last Obama-Biden. We will see an influx of temporary immigrants into the US from India, China, and other countries working in software and IT jobs as we seen during Obama-Biden. I saw it at Master Card, Verizon, AT&T, Hospital IT groups, etc… Trump pulled that back to make US Corporations give first right of refusal for US citizens. Example, a US Cisco certification salary vs the same from India or Philippines is 20k less so they hired them in droves due to high corporate taxes. My wife’s hospital just laid off the IT group and sent it oversea in preparation for the different administration. The winners, the Data line providers that nailed up the private line connections to those countries, the oversea workers, and the hospital stock holders…losers, US workers and economy.

    This is one example. GM is amoung these corporations to save what they can even if they move jobs to other countries.

    We’ve all tried calling a 800 help number…and got Bob…

    Biden will just ho back to Obama’s ways. Lame Duck Joe. AOC will find a place in this administration. A mindset of a college student until she GROWS up…

    I’m going get disputes from the left here but all you have to do is look it up. Some GM cars are being designed in China today for the US market…

  16. So, we have folks posting on here who ride the smart phone all day long looking at Apple News, MSN News and make educated decisions with the feed that comes from those who don’t have the best interests of America at heart. I’ve watched the last three administrations prior to Trump sell us out to the highest bidder. Our legislators are a band of criminals who believe that the main stream media and social media will keep the American people stupid while they rob us blind. With the likes of AOC and the squad, the American dream will soon evaporate. Being older than most of you who post on here, I can tell you that from what I see the younger generation will experience a true disappointment in the future. There won’t be an APP on your phone to fix this mess. Remember………….those with the gold make the rules and you don’t have the gold if you are working for a living. Wise up my friends, this will not end well!

    1. The real issue has been the people of both parties are pushing for globalization and that is not good for America. To get us to be a cooperating partner in this they will weaken us.

      Today you must look at these people and decide if they are part of the plan or are against it.

      Joe Manchin just came out and opposed the court stacking, the killing of the filibuster and not making DC and PR states. He put America before politics. We have others like Shumer and Romney that are part of the people willing to sell us out. I really respect that.

      I noted many people walking away from Congress and the Senate. It gives you the feeling they are getting out of the way of those in power.

      They thought they had this won with Hilary and Trump got in the way. Then this time they thought they would get the Senate and gain in the house well they haven’t yet. Their is going to be a war in GA like we have not seen since Sherman rolled in.

      Then the far left and moderate Democrats are now butting heads.

      Now the Republicans need to find their way forward. Trump showed them what people want. If they could package it with a person that is willing to stand up and take the shots tossed at them and deliver the message in a less NYC way they could regain control. But they need to keep the Romney’s and McCann types out.

      3. The media in general has been controlled a a good while now. Just look at the cable new like CNN and MSNBC. They have no hard news anymore it is all opinion that claims to be hard news.

        Like Fox or not they go have hard news with Brett Baier and Chris Wallace and others. The night shows are presented as opinion.

        The print media is all agenda driven. The networks are agenda driven, the web is controlling.

        Even on Yahoo they did away with comments to sensor the counter points.

        Hollywierd is controlled and if any of them step out of line they face exclusion.

        Just look at people with strong connections to China. They all come out and try to tell us what to think. Bill Gates and others who have much at stake in China support them.

        While many yelled Russia, Russia, Russia they were distracting us from China.
