Outsourcing plaguing northwest Ohio

by John Spalding—Ohio

People are talking about Ohio’s job loss. Whether or not we canvass them and sign them up as members, citizens in northwest Ohio are aware of the huge losses of manufacturing jobs in our state.

This week in Fostoria and Toledo, people signed up because they are worried about job losses and support our work fighting outsourcing. Many of them had just heard an announcement about shift eliminations in Northwood, Ohio and about potential layoffs and closing of a plant in Fostoria beginning in March.

People readily take the clipboard and sign up as members to show support. As the economic stimulus package goes through Congress, most people are worried about creating and keeping good jobs in our state.
