美國總統就通用汽車公司重組一事發表演講

大會堂前廳

2023年6月1日

就在兩個多月前，就在此處，我與諸位探討了美國汽車業所面臨的挑戰，我列出了挽救美國兩大聞名汽車制造商通用汽車公司和克萊斯勒公司所應實行的措施。這兩家公司面臨著過去幾十年中孕育已久的危機，他們依靠往屆政府的貸款，現在又要求政府供應更多幫助。

從一起先我就明確表示，我將不會投入更多的稅收，否則就意味著將失敗的經營決策接著下去，而這種經營決策已經導致上述兩家公司首先提出救濟要求。我不會任憑這些公司成為國家永久的負擔，靠納稅人的源源不斷供應血汗錢而生存。換言之，我不會再采納權宜之計了。

但我也承認，在以工業為主的中西部地區乃至全美，一個能獨立生存的汽車企業關乎家庭及社會的福祉。在經濟嚴峻衰退和金融危機時期，這些公司的倒閉對多數美國人來說無疑是一種災難，會對全國經濟造成巨大影響且遠不止是汽車工業。假如通用汽車公司和克萊斯勒公司能在21世紀自行重組再造，毫無疑問，這將有益于美國的工人、制造業以及美國的整體經濟。

因此，我確定，假如通用汽車公司和克萊斯勒公司及其利益相關者情愿為公司的生存和勝利作出犧牲，情愿直面困難，通過實行必要的重組措施使公司變得更為強大、精悍、更富競爭力，那么，美國政府就會支持它們。

今年年初，通用汽車公司和克萊斯勒公司最初提交的重組安排中并未提出企業生存必需的全面改革安排，因此我不能愧對良心在這種條件下賜予支持，我給了它們一個機會制定一項更強有力的安排，并走上長期保持生存實力的道路。然而，通用汽車公司提交修改安排的60天期限已經過去，我要對我們的現狀和將來實行的措施發表看法。但是在這之前，我想講一下克萊斯勒的最新進展。

本屆政府執政后就起先徹查克萊斯勒的賬目，發覺這個美國汽車業的巨頭前途未卜。事實上，它是否還有前途都不得而知。但是經過詢問白宮汽車行動小組、行業專家和財政顧問，并就諸多難題進行探討后，我起先信任假如克萊斯勒情愿重組，能與一家具備生存實力的全球化汽車企業建立伙伴關系，那么它將會重獲新生。

更多充溢希望的劇情正在上演。今日，在經驗了一系列苦痛的環節以及快速、高效和公允的破產程序后，一個全新且更具實力的克萊斯勒完成了與菲亞特的結盟。僅在克萊斯勒依據《破產法》第11章規定申請破產的31天后，法院批準了克萊斯勒-菲亞特的結盟，為克萊斯勒在將來幾年中重塑自我并從破產中崛起鋪平了道路。

接下來，公司的命運就掌控在公司的高層、經理和員工的手中了，這和任何其他私營企業并無二致。但結盟的完成意味著因克萊斯勒公司清償債務會失去的數萬個工作崗位，將得以保留，消費者也無須對重組有絲毫擔憂，即使這種重組和克萊斯勒所經驗的一切同樣令人苦痛。

值得關注的是，很多專家曾認為外科手術式的快速破產方式不行行，然而，他們錯了。另一些人預料克萊斯勒公司的破產確定將會導致消費者信念會頃刻瓦解，使汽車銷量一落千丈，他們也錯了。事實上，克萊斯勒公司5月的銷售業績要好于4月，部分緣由是由于我們對快速破產程序做出了特殊承諾，安撫了消費者。總而言之，與程序啟動時相比，效果極為明顯。
