Detroit’s Big Three carmakers are scheduled to meet with Vice President Mike Pence today to express concern about the stalled talks over the North American Free Trade Agreement.
Sources tell Bloomberg News that General Motors CEO Mary Barra, Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne and Ford global operations chief Joe Hinrichs will be in the meeting.
The trio are likely to emphasize that the Trump administration’s demands to significantly rebalance NAFTA in an effort to generate more jobs and trade for the U.S. could have the opposite result.
