Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan secured a crucial victory with the expansion of Selfridge Air National Guard Base, which will receive 20 F-15EX fighter jets. Despite her previous discomfort during a meeting with President Trump, she welcomed the announcement as a critical win for both Michiganâs economy and national security. The addition of new jets represents a long-term investment in local jobs and positions Michigan as a leader in national defense innovations. The governor's positive stance reflects the bipartisan significance of this development, projected to enhance economic contributions exceeding $100 million.
In Michigan, Ms. Whitmer and her allies view the expansion at Selfridge as a big enough victory to be worth whatever personal humiliation she endured.
This is a huge, bipartisan win for Michigan, decades in the making, that will grow our economy and make our country safer.
