This is good for Toyota, Texas, and the reputation of our Governor by creating a positive impact on the economy statewide. Perry continues to bring companies and products from other states into Texas, keeping our economy one of the strongest in the country.

Toyota’s impact on Texas includes:

· 5,500 jobs at TMMTX
· 11,700 jobs in Texas
· $1.3 billion on San Antonio plant
· $1.2 million direct investments in Texas for 2009
