Mary Barra, now leading General Motors, sees her appointment as an honor and promises to continue pushing policies that offer growth and opportunities for all Americans. Set to take over from Walmart head Doug McMillon, Barra's background in success and understanding of the multi-stakeholder approach makes McMillon excited for her leadership.
Joining the Business Roundtable in 2017, post becoming GM CEO in 2014, Barra represents a company that has reservations about the tax hikes proposed in President Biden's "Build Back Better" plan. However, General Motors supports the plan's sustainability goals and regulations, which accelerate its implementation in electric vehicles.
Building Back Better sets foundations for environmental guidelines, aiming to combat climate change and improve environmental quality and resilience. Committed to these goals, GM voiced support and reiterated its dedication to promoting electric vehicle adoption, making the US a global market leader in electrification.
Mary Barra's tenure at General Motors has paved the way for the company's extensive growth and recognition in the business sector, with a focus on promoting policies that promise economic growth and opportunities for all Americans.
