Court filings show that at least two former board members in Michigan stood to receive financial benefits from Gotion while it was seeking approval for its project there. Gotion's Michigan project is planned to supply parts to the Gotion factory in Manteno, Illinois being built with taxpayer subsidies.

And the game is afoot. Get taxpayers to unwillingly subsidize a company that you are connected to and benefit financially from. If said company is a foreign entity or goes bankrupt, so what? Collect yours and move down the road to the next adventure funded with tax dollars. Unions and politicians alike are complicit in the fleecing.

Keep Gotion out of IL and MI.
