After attending a celebration of an Old Forge small business lending program, U.S. Rep. Paul Kanjorski (D-11) announced that Pennsylvania is being considered as the destination for a hybrid auto manufacturer, the Scranton Times-Tribune reports.
The automaker, which was not named, is looking for a home for its
national headquarters and factory and would employ 1,000 to start and
4,000 when fully operational, he said.
"They came to us," the Nanticoke Democrat said, expounding on reasons he is optimistic for the area's economy.
