Barra expressed optimism about collaborating with the Trump administration, stating, "I'm actually looking forward to working with the president and with the administration, because I think we can grow the importance of the auto industry and manufacturing, and so I think there's a lot that we have in common." This illustrates her commitment to align GM's goals with new government policies.
When discussing environmental regulations, she noted, "There's ample room to streamline the environmental permitting process, which Trump has pledged to do." This reflects GM's interest in easing regulatory burdens to boost manufacturing.
On the challenges posed by Biden's vehicle emissions targets, Barra stated that "getting to some of the standards that are set right now are going to be challenging," indicating that a rollback of these standards may be beneficial for the auto industry.
Barra acknowledged potential challenges with tariffs, remarking, "It could have a very substantial impact on GM," but remained hopeful about productive discussions among leaders, suggesting an understanding of the implications of these tariffs.
