Solidarity in Steel Day of Action: Indiana

This summer more than 30,000 Steelworkers across the country are bargaining new labor agreements. On September 1 , contracts expire for workers at ArcelorMittal and U.S. Steel. On that day, Steelworkers and community supporters are taking action to show management we are strong, united and ready to do whatever it takes to win a fair contract! Join us for a rally in Indiana:
Rally at ArcelorMittal

Management at these companies want to use a temporary downturn in the domestic steel market as an excuse to permanently gut workers’ contract language and benefits. Already, 2,200 workers have been locked out of their jobs at 12 ATI facilities. In the face of these attacks, we are organizing and mobilizing to fight for fair contracts and good jobs in our communities.
