PLAIN CITY, OH – Flying above Plain City today, a banner featuring a new website MercedesBenzofSunbury.com highlighted Bernie Moreno’s “return to the auto industry” and the many lawsuits Moreno has faced for mistreating workers.

What Ohioans Need To Know About Bernie Moreno’s “New Controversy” After Getting Caught “Preparing A Return To The Auto Industry”:

• Recent reporting from NBC News caught Bernie Moreno “preparing a return to the auto industry” with plans to open a new Mercedes-Benz dealership in Ohio after repeatedly claiming “for more than a year” that he “sold off all of his businesses to avoid conflicts of interest” on the campaign trail.
• Public records show Moreno has purchased $9.5 million of land in Delaware County and secured $40 million in financing through a mortgage agreement with Mercedes-Benz for a new dealership, which will break ground in November.

• Moreno has faced scrutiny for his record as a car salesman, which includes over a dozen lawsuits where Moreno refused to pay his employees what they were owed, deliberately destroyed evidence he was legally required to keep to get out of paying them, and lied about selling Chinese-made cars that Ohio workers say shipped Ohio jobs overseas.
