I'm Margaret Jackson and I've worked at the Granite City steel mill for 3 years. My family depends on my job and me.
My son will be graduating from high school this year and I hate knowing that I won't be able to help him with expenses as he heads to college. I'll have to make sacrifices with all three of my children.
Please call your Representative today at 1-844-505-4449 and tell them to say no to any more unfair trade laws.
Congress needs to say no to upcoming Fast Track legislation that enables lawmakers to push through trade deals in secret. People who support this say, don’t worry, trust us, this will all be good for workers. Trust me, no trade deal has ever been good for our families or us.
I lost my last job as a result of bad trade ... now I am losing my job in the steel mill because of dumped imports from China. Please help us stop unfair dumping of foreign steel and keep these good jobs in the U.S.A.
We’ve heard all these political promises before and look what’s happened to our jobs – they’re gone. Don’t fall for it again, help us by calling your Representative at 1-844-505-4449 and tell them to vote NO on Fast Track legislation!
Thank you for all of your support and solidarity,
Margaret Jackson, USW Local Union 1899 Member
