Republicans in the United States Congress have withdrawn plans to get rid of the independent body that investigates congressional misconduct. It comes after President-elect Donald Trump has criticised the proposal calling on the politicians to focus on tax reform, healthcare and other issues. Meanwhile, Ford is canceling plans to build a new 1.6 billion dollar (USD) factory in Mexico and will invest 700 million dollars in a Michigan plant to build new electric and autonomous vehicles. Earlier, US President-elect Donald Trump has been pressuring Ford to keep production of the Focus in the U-S.
