Union’s ‘We Supply America’ Bus Scheduled to Stop at USW Locals to Highlight Jobs, Community Benefits of Robust Investment
The labor community suffered an immeasurable loss today with the passing of Rich Trumka, a true friend of our union and of workers everywhere.
Through the agreement, the USW will work with the company to recruit and train local workers, ensuring the surrounding community shares in the benefits of this investment.
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.
