tl;dr
Michigan Advance reports that Senate candidate Mike Rogers repeatedly described himself as an auto assembly-line worker, while its reporting and a UAW representative say his work at Cars & Concepts involved modifying already-built vehicles. Rogers’ campaign disputes that characterization and says he also worked at another facility.
