Original 8/18/2017 post, "Dear Politifact, there's a big difference between ;is bringing; and 'is pledging'", starts here.
Scott Walker says Foxconn 'bringing' 13,000 jobs to Wisconsin -- what exactly does that mean?. (PolitiFact Wisconsin, 8/17/2017)
Actually, it's all talk right now. But the 13,000 is more than talk. Foxconn is pledging a $10 billion investment and the state is offering $3 billion in incentives, with $1.5 billion aimed at the creation of 13,000 jobs. [emphasis added]
And how did that Foxconn pledge go to Pennsylvania?
In 2013, Foxconn’s chairman sent a jolt through this state capital when he said his company — best known for making Apple iPhones in China — would invest $30 million and hire 500 workers for a new high-tech factory in central Pennsylvania.
False.
