WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The White House on Wednesday said Stellantis should deliver on commitments made to the United Auto Workers union and communities affected by plant closures in the United States.

The deal reached between the UAW and Stellantis “included a commitment to reopen and expand production in communities that were devastated by previous plant closures,” White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said.

“What we want to see is Stellantis certainly deliver on those commitments to the UAW and to the communities.”
