The president of the united States, Donald Trump, reported to the directors of General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler, which will reduce regulations, environmental regulations and taxes to encourage the return of industries to the united States.
Trump began his meeting at the White House with the top representatives of the three main american manufacturers of automobiles, ensuring that it was stacked against the sector, in spite of their constant criticism and threats to the manufacturers.
"we’re giving a big push to be built in the united States assembly plants and other factories. Mary I promise you, are not being singled out," he said, addressing Mary Barra, ceo of General Motors.
From several months ago, the president has threatened to car manufacturers, with tariffs of up to 35 percent on products imported from Mexico. In response, the sector announced in the last few weeks thousands of millions of dollars in investments in the united States, and Ford the cancellation of an assembly plant in Mexico.
Trump said that, in large measure, is a protector of nature, but that will reduce the environmental requirements. For the second consecutive day, also continued to overturn decisions of his predecessor.
on Monday, withdrew to the united States of the treaty on the free trade trans-Pacific, driven and negotiated by Barack Obama because they consider it harmful to the creation of american jobs.
in Addition, he signed two executive orders to resume the controversial projects of the oil pipelines Keystone XL and Dakota Access, thus fulfilling two of his campaign promises despite criticism from environmental groups. According to the representative, are to 28,000 jobs.
Trump said that the construction of these two projects, planned from several years ago but stalled by the government of Obama, will be subject to terms and conditions that his cabinet will negotiate with the companies responsible. "This is going to generate many jobs in the construction sector", he assured.
The Keystone pipeline SL, of the canadian company TransCanada, was vetoed by Obama in 2015 and was intended to transport approximately 830.000 barrels a day of synthetic crude oil and bituminous diluted from the canadian province of Alberta to different places of the united States, including refineries in Texas on the gulf of Mexico. The project spreads over 1,900 km, of which about 1,400 are in u.s. territory.
The Dakota Access project, project of 3.8 billion dollars, would carry half a million barrels of oil from the deposits of bituminous North Dakota infrastructure in Illinois.
Both faced a lot of resistance from environmental groups, because of the power polluting the oil from the tar sands, whose production emits 17% more greenhouse gas emissions than extracting conventional crude oil. The Dakota Access caused a strong protest of the indian tribe Standing Rock, as their construction would they lose land that they consider sacred and pollute the waters of the Missouri river, which is dependent on your way of life.
The group issued a note in which he announced that submitted the measure to the justice. "The pipeline, not just hit-and-run agreements with the sioux, but also threatens to contaminate our water and the water 17 million americans."

A judge for the Supreme Court
The president informed that the next week will announce the name of its candidate to replace Supreme Court justice when conservative justice Antonin Scalia, who died in February 2016.
"we’re Going to choose a really good judge for the Supreme Court and so will let you know at some point in the next week," added the president in the Oval office. His predecessor, a democrat, Barack Obama, proposed to the magistrate judge Merrick Garland, but the Senate –dominated by republicans– has refused to accept it.
The Supreme Court should make decisions about very sensitive issues on which the ideology weighs, such as abortion, gay marriage and the possession of weapons. Its judges are appointed by the president and hold office for life. He added that he thought to choose a judge in anti-abortion and pro-gun. "I am pro-life, and the judges will be," he said.
