Balanced News: Mexican President Says Tesla to Build Plant in Mexico

President Andrés Manuel Lopez Obrador of Mexico announced that electric car company Tesla has committed to building a major plant in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, in northern Mexico. The plant is expected to create many jobs and be a large investment for Tesla. Nuevo Leon is a water-rich state that had been considered the frontrunner for the plant, but the announcement is a disappointment for more water-rich southern states that had begun jockeying for the plant.
