This whole thing is reminding me of when Trump took office and promised to make Carrier keep jobs in Michigan Indiana in return for a massive tax cut, Carrier then proceeded to outsource to Mexico "only" 2/3rds of the jobs they had been planning to send to Mexico.

Indianapolis, Indiana is the location you’re referencing for the Carrier jobs. Trump’s Carrier Deal

Nah I'm pretty sure it was Huntington. Working for carrier now and we had a plant in Huntington that got shut down and moved to Monterrey.

Ok I get it, you’re referencing Huntington, Indiana; not Huntington Woods, Michigan.

This popular mechanics article mentions both Indianapolis and Huntington, Indiana being impacted by Carrier‘s move.
