What happened
Bos is canvassing for the Democratic Party. The company is currently facing economic pressure following the layoffs of 1,400 employees at the Navistar truck factory in southwestern Ohio. The decline in the region is attributed to the fact that trade with China and NAFTA made it cheaper for companies to purchase auto parts from abroad.

Why it matters
The layoffs occurred shortly before a major political election, adding to the economic uncertainty in the greater Dayton, Ohio area. The situation highlights how regional economies that relied on manufacturing bases can contract due to international trade shifts and foreign competition.
