Foxconn leaders in Wisconsin to meet with government leaders

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Foxconn Technology Group executives are in Wisconsin meeting with government officials.

State Assembly Speaker Robin Vos tweeted Wednesday that he and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald met with Foxconn Chairman Young Liu, Vice Chairman Jay Lee and Alan Yeung, Foxconn's U.S. strategist, and got an update on the company's future plans.

He didn't offer any details on when the meeting took place or what was discussed. Aides for both Vos and Fitzgerald didn't immediately return messages.

Foxconn spokeswoman Myranda Tanck issued a statement Wednesday saying only that Liu is visiting Wisconsin for meetings with Gov. Tony Evers, state and local officials and "members of Wisconsin's higher education community."

Evers spokeswoman, Melissa Baldauff, didn't immediately return a message.

Foxconn is building a flat-screen manufacturing plant in Pleasant Prairie.
