CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS delivered the opinion of the Court.

Jeeps were first mass-produced in 1941 for the U. S. Army by the Willys-Overland Motor Company in Toledo, Ohio. Nearly 60 years later, the city of Toledo and State of Ohio sought to encourage the current manufacturer of Jeeps— DaimlerChrysler—to expand its Jeep operation in Toledo, by offering local and state tax benefits for new investment.
