Mayoral candidate unveils 'Grow Warren' plan

WARREN — Mayoral candidate Jim Graham has launched an economic-development initiative called “Grow Warren” that he believes will bring jobs to the city.

Graham, president of United Auto Workers Union Local 1112 at the Lordstown General Motors plant, said the plan involves the creation of a committee of about three prominent business people willing to travel and meet with business leaders anywhere in the world to promote business opportunities in Warren.

“These guys could have gone anywhere in the country, but they chose to stay here,” Graham said of his panel of business executives.

“We have to reach out. We can’t wait for things to fall in our lap,” Graham said today from his campaign headquarters on East Market Street.
