Whirlpool Corporation announced Tuesday that it will add 200 jobs to its Ohio facility after President Donald Trump’s administration placed a tariff on washing machines entering the United States.
Trump is expected to sign the tariff measure on Tuesday. The measure is aimed at competitors Samsung Electronics Co. and LG Electronics Inc., according to Crain’s Detroit Business.
