Rhode Island governor says Amgen will build another plant in state

The plant will use Amgen's new flexible and reconfigurable technology, part of the company's ongoing efforts to control costs. Amgen, headquartered in Thousand Oaks, California, said in January it would locate the new plant in the United States, due in part to a lower effective tax rate stemming from U.S. tax reform. The company will also receive corporate tax incentives linked to job creation from Rhode Island, according to Governor Gina Raimondo.
