CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) -- An official says General Motors is recalling about 400 idled union workers to its Spring Hill plant in Tennessee to build a four-cylinder engine. An official briefed about the new jobs who declined to be identified because an announcement is pending provided the count to The Associated Press on Tuesday. GM spokeswoman Sherrie Childers Arb said a media advisory would be forthcoming about a Friday announcement about Spring Hill but she declined further comment. The Detroit Free Press first reported the decision citing an anonymous source. GM laid off about 2,000 workers at Spring Hill last year. About 800 of those workers have relocated to GM plants in other states. --- Krisher reported from Detroit.

1:55 p.m., Sep. 7, 2010 Recommend 2 comments Email Print Southeast Michigan employers to cut 420 jobs in coming weeks, WARN notices show By Chad Halcom Rated by 1 person Rate This Advertisement Nine Michigan private sector employers will shed a combined 863 jobs in the coming weeks, including 420 jobs at five employers in Southeast Michigan, according to new data for plant closings and layoff notices from the state Department of Energy, Labor and Economic Growth. The DELEG Rapid Response Section reported five notices statewide during August of pending plant closings or plant layoffs, under the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act. That’s compared with three WARN Act notices affecting fewer than 100 employees in July. The August layoff notices include 285 jobs to be eliminated by October for Auburn Hills-based photovoltaic solar cells maker United Solar Ovonic LLC, a subsidiary of Energy Conversion Devices Inc. in Rochester Hills. It was the region’s largest layoff notice, second only to the Aug. 30 notice that General Motors Co. would cut 330 jobs upon closing its Powertrain Flint North plant in November. The federal act requires companies with more than 100 employees to file notice with state and local governments 60 days in advance of plant or building closures or layoffs that affect more than 50 employees. The agency did receive other reports of 159 lost jobs in March among five employers outside of the traditional WARN Act notification process. These generally come by way of phone calls, media reports or notices forwarded to Rapid Response from the Michigan Works Agency or other agencies. Government employers and some nonprofits are exempt from the federal law. Other August layoffs and plant closings in the region, according to DELEG, include: • Detroit-based Evans Solution Inc., a charter schools management company, which shed 25 jobs effective Aug. 12. • BAE Systems Inc., a defense contractor with operations in Sterling Heights, to shed 10 jobs from its Global Tactical Systems division by late October. • The Omni Detroit Hotel at River Place, which could close by Oct. 12 if the Irving, Texas-based hotel chain that owns it cannot close on a sale to a potential buyer by then. A closure would eliminate 76 local jobs according to DELEG. • A Dearborn office of human resources, payroll and benefits manager Automatic Data Processing Inc., which is scheduled to close in September and eliminate 24 local jobs.
Clinton and Cuomo are the true bandits who lit the fuse to this economic crisis we're now in. All in the name of getting more minorities in houses: http://libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=12554
Chuckles...you love rooting against the economy. Why not just come out and admit you're voting a straight GOP ticket?
Why not just come out and admit you're voting a straight GOP ticket? Sorry that the truth hurts. Brains has a party about GM hiring some TN workers on some stimulus cash and doesn't see what is happening in Flint. You're the one who can't handle the truth.

Flint has been in the toilet for 3 decades.
But Obama said that if we elected him it would get better! I guess he lied.

This is similar to an oppositional disorder.
As GOP messiah, Obama has the power to reach into the past and change history.
He did, and the people now living there in 1985 are living a wonderful life. Unfortunately, because of the problems with time travel, they've been unable to communicate the good news to us.
"Our quest for the lesser evil has arrived at an impasse. On one hand we have a world-class Doublethinker who expects us to thank him for keeping promises he has vigorously broken and to accept the cynical notion that war is peace. On the other we have a mob of flesh-eating galoots who promise to give us Orwell’s Hate Week 52 weeks a year for as long as it takes them to bring about Armageddon. " — Jeff Huber
A little bug in the software.
It is. We're not bleeding jobs like we were for the last two years of your hero under whom you "prospered". And you're stupid if you don't see it.
If you could just hang around in 2010 for the next couple of decades they'll be able to tell you in person.

And that would be under a Democratic Congress. Funny how in your little universe the Democrats are never to blame. Barney Frank, Sen. Dodd-none of those guys ever did anything wrong. When you're identified as a shill for one party War you lose all of your credibility. You're nothing more than a Democratic shill.

There aren't any you fookin dunce!
The economy had downward momentum in the Fall of 2006. We were in full blown recession less than a year after they took over. What previous policy of the GOP as well as the Boy Blunder WH did the Democratic Congress undo? Take your time.
Get yer ass in here boy you got some 'splainin' to do... WHAT policy was undone that put us into recession?
