WASHINGTON, D.C. – General Motors supports free trade. It benefits the auto industry and its workers. We thank Senators Portman, Stabenow, Hatch and Wyden for their hard work and commitment to address currency manipulation. Their bipartisan efforts to deal with this vital trade issue lessens the likelihood that currency manipulation could be used as a mechanism to inappropriately advantage one country's trade position over another.

General Motors Co. (NYSE:GM, TSX: GMM) and its partners produce vehicles in 30 countries, and the company has leadership positions in the world's largest and fastest-growing automotive markets.
