HRC in Detroit Today

DETROIT, MI — Hillary Clinton on Friday heaped praise on Michigan businesses and economic progress in Detroit as she introduced an economic policy proposal in a campaign stop at an auto parts factory.

The Democratic presidential candidate spoke to a crowd at Detroit Manufacturing Systems on the city's west side, promising federal measures to pressure corporations into keeping and creating manufacturing jobs in the U.S.

"I deliberately chose to come to Detroit and to this company to talk about jobs because I want more people to see what's happening in Southwest Detroit and Midtown and Eastern Market," Clinton said.

"New businesses are opening. Families are moving in. The streetlights are on again. The buses and running again. There is a palpable feeling of pride and community and we have to spread economic revitalization to all of Detroit's neighborhoods."
