Foxconn expansion to create 13,000 Wisconsin jobs

I was pleased to see Wisconsin’s efforts at job creation pay off as Foxconn Technology Group has announced plans for a $10 billion investment in the state. According to an announcement at the White House on Wednesday afternoon, Foxconn plans to invest $10 billion by 2020 to build a world-class manufacturing plant in Southeastern Wisconsin.

The state of Wisconsin is a great place to live and work, and global leaders recognize that fact. I am excited for the opportunities Foxconn will bring to Wisconsin’s job market and economy.

The new facility will manufacture liquid crystal display (LCD) screens for use in everything from office and healthcare settings to aircraft and self-driving cars. Foxconn is the world’s largest electronics manufacturing services provider.

This is state of the art technology coming right here to Wisconsin. The effects on our state could be transformational.

This move will create 13,000 new jobs in the state. It will also be the largest new green field investment made by a foreign-based company in U.S. history. Our reputation here in Wisconsin for top tech college graduates, a strong manufacturing background and an excellent work ethic all came together to make our state the top option for this expansion.

I am honored that Foxconn and CEO Terry Gou chose our state for this expansion, and I am encouraged to see new opportunities for Wisconsin job seekers and their families.

Have a great weekend,

Representative Paul Tittl
