Last week, Donnelly called on Rexnord to come clean and explain its proposed plan after the company’s CEO declined to speak with Senator Donnelly for over a month. Donnelly said, “This news is extremely disappointing, particularly for the hard-working Hoosier families whose lives will be upended. I stand with these workers and am ready to help them however possible as they try to provide for their families. If Rexnord is going to upend the lives of hundreds of Hoosier families, the least they can do is come clean about chasing cheap wages abroad.” After Rexnord announced almost a month ago that it had “tentatively” decided to move its Indianapolis operation to Mexico, Donnelly said he was looking for an explanation from Rexnord about its plans. Donnelly has pushed for policies that invest in our workers, strengthen the middle class, and promote the American economy. In May, Donnelly released a white paper and proposed a series of policy recommendations intended to prevent and discourage the further offshoring of Hoosier and American jobs. The recommendations were sent to the Senate Finance Committee for consideration. The proposals would penalize those that offshore jobs to foreign countries and reward companies that invest in the U.S. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
