Feingold's statement on Senate's failure to support the auto industry and its workers
Statement of U.S. Senator Russ Feingold On a Minority of Senators Blocking Effort to Save Millions of American Jobs
“I supported this plan to help the U.S. auto industry because without this assistance, millions of American jobs, including tens of thousands in Wisconsin, will be jeopardized. In these tough economic times, allowing our auto manufacturers to fail could be catastrophic for our economy and could send already increasing unemployment levels skyrocketing. I am greatly disappointed that some Senators didn’t hesitate to bail out Wall Street, but decided not to help millions of working class Americans."
