In 2016, President Donald Trump campaigned on promises to save U.S. manufacturing jobs from leaving the country, including hundreds at the Indianapolis Carrier plant.

The company's announcement Monday was the latest by a sprawling industrial conglomerate deciding it will be more efficient and focused as smaller, separate entities.

The governor's office has 30 days to release emails about the 2016 deal to ensure some jobs at an Indianapolis Carrier plant were not outsourced.

Union President Robert James says he's glad the opportunity came for some who are still unemployed. But he says the relief might not be permanent.

The company says about 215 people are being let go starting Thursday, leaving about 1,100 workers at the Indianapolis plant.

Carrier said Tuesday the layoffs originally planned for Dec. 22 will now occur Jan. 11 and affect 60 fewer workers than originally estimated.

The primary message was an attack on President Donald Trump, for what Sanders says is a failure to act on campaign promises to prevent jobs from leaving the country.

The city will work with EmployIndy to provide up to $1,000 for each employee, as long as they can prove they are actively looking for a job.

Carrier agreed to preserve about 700 jobs in exchange for state tax breaks, but it's cutting 632 others, and more workers are taking early retirement buyouts.

The Citizens Action Coalition wants records that could shed light on how the Carrier company reached a deal with the state and President Trump late last year.
