WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s auto task force told skeptical lawmakers Wed nesday the government had no plans to pump more dollars into General Motors and Chrysler and that the public had a “reasonable probability” of getting its money back.
Ron Bloom, a task-force adviser, faced numerous questions about the roughly $80 billion in federal aid to the companies, their lending affiliates and suppliers. He said the efforts had given the automakers “a chance to become viable, competitive businesses with bright futures. . . . We strongly believe this is the last money that GM will require.”
