Ryan
Statement on
Delphi
Bankruptcy Filing, Expected Closure or
Sale
of Oak Creek Plants
JANESVILLE
–
Wisconsin
’s First District Congressman Paul Ryan made the following statement regarding
today’s bankruptcy filing by Delphi Corp. and its announcement of a
restructuring plan that does not include keeping the
Oak Creek
plants open.
“This is devastating news for the
Oak Creek
community and our entire region, which has counted the
Oak Creek
plants among its great manufacturing strengths.
The people who work at these plants are highly skilled and hard-working,
and I fail to see how
Delphi
can help its recovery by closing or selling these facilities.
Every day, Delphi’s
Oak Creek
workers pour their knowledge and their hearts into making top-quality products
that our auto industry relies on. They
do a great job, and they deserve to keep their jobs.
I will continue working with them to make sure they get the assistance
they need during this difficult time, and I know the community will pull
together to help one another,” Ryan said.
Congressman Ryan has been in constant communication with union leaders and
Delphi officials throughout the negotiations process that preceded today’s
announcement, in an effort to prevent the closure of Delphi’s
Oak Creek
plants.
