Bergstrom comments on Canoo making Oklahoma home

Sen. Micheal Bergstrom, R-Adair, released the following statement after the announcement that electric vehicle company, Canoo, will be locating to northeast Oklahoma:

“I’m thrilled with the news that Canoo will be making northeast Oklahoma their home at the MidAmerica Industrial Park in Pryor. The factory they plan to build in our state will bring an estimated 2,000 jobs to the area, providing an economic boon to our region and state. Our energy-forward initiatives have been noticed by companies looking to lay their roots in a state with a business-friendly climate, low cost-of-living and friendly atmosphere, and it’s no surprise that Oklahoma checks all these boxes. I look forward to the success of Canoo and wish them a warm welcome to northeast Oklahoma.”
