United Steelworkers (USW) District 1 includes the state of Ohio.
Workers across every facet of our economy, including hundreds of thousands of USW members, are ready and willing to help our nation meet its needs.
The purposes of the PRO Act are simple: to ensure workers can push for the changes we want to see at our jobs without fear of retaliation, and to strengthen workers’ rights to form a union and negotiate for those changes if we so choose.
Local 1-689 leaders met separately with a top Department of Energy official and an Ohio congressman to gauge their support for possible initiatives that could bring jobs to the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant after the cleanup work is completed.
