much. todd: michigan governor gretchen whitmer feeling the heat as ford looks to build new electric vehicle plants in other states. carley: congressman tim wahlburg is here to react. when you think of ford, you think of michigan. why are these facilities being built in other states, kentucky and tennessee? >> well, that's a question, good morning, good to be with you. that's a question that we're asking, why did this happen on governor whitmer's watch? i mean, this is the motor capital of the world. it started all here. ford still has its home plant here, its headquarters and you would think that our governor would have had intimate involvement with even acquiring this plant but it appears like she wasn't even aware, her economic development team wasn't aware. ford made decisions on their own for their best interest, of course, and while we would love to keep them here, they decided to go to tennessee and kentucky.
