We’re taking a broad, ambitious view that includes rebuilding not only our physical infrastructure – like roads, bridges, ports and waterways – but also the social infrastructure of our schools, communications networks and public health services.
Sometimes, the best thing we can do is be bold. And this is one of those times. We’ve been through a lot. But we’re Steelworkers, and we were made for these fights. Our union built this country, and we’re ready to do it again. It’s time to get to work rebuilding America, using the things WE MAKE and invest in the things WE DO. That’s why our union is launching a new campaign: We Supply America.
