People in North Georgia thought Volkswagen’s Chattanooga plant would bring jobs to the area, according to Dalton’s Daily Citizen.
But so far, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that out of the 1,300 employees hired to work at the plant, none of them are from Georgia.
Volkswagen receives almost $600 million in tax breaks from Tennessee and hires many employees from that state.
