GM to Cut 350 Jobs at Lansing Plants Starting January 2027, Ripple Effects Expected

NewsData.io · United States · Aug 17, 2026

General Motors will lay off 350 workers at its Lansing Grand River Assembly and Stamping plant and Lansing Regional Stamping facility beginning January 14, 2027. Supply chain experts warn the impact will extend beyond direct GM employees, potentially affecting smaller suppliers heavily dependent on those vehicle lines. Local employers are already anticipating reduced foot traffic and planning staffing adjustments in response. GM is simultaneously investing $1.25 billion to prepare the Lansing Grand River site for next-generation Cadillac CT5 production.
