From the beginning, the workers who power this company should have had a seat at the negotiating table—their livelihoods hung in the balance. No matter what, I will keep fighting to protect Western PA Steelworker jobs and American steelmaking. triblive.com/news/wire-stor…

Honored to join the @MeidasTouch podcast today to speak some truth to power! ✊🏾 @steelworkers #1u

International VP of the United Steelworkers Roxanne Brown: I don’t know if I can curse on this podcast, but I’m a steelworker. One of the things I always say is, you can’t bullshit a steelworker. You can’t bullshit a union member, right? Union workers know the real and understand who is for them. When bullshit is in front of them, they’re able to identify what it is and see through that. That’s what I would really implore my brothers, sisters, and siblings across the labor movement: don’t be snowed by the bullshit. Pay attention, do your research on what Trump has done for workers versus what the Biden-Harris Administration has done for workers, and you will find there’s a huge gap. The Biden-Harris Administration has gone leaps and bounds—not just now but into the future—to secure a foundation for American working families and workers to propel into economic prosperity. What Trump has done is not that. He has told us from his own mouth that he doesn’t want us to be organized. He doesn’t support the right of workers to join unions. He does not support the right of workers to earn overtime or that extra bit of income to have more money in your paychecks to do the things you need to do for your family to survive. He has told you he does not support your retirement. He never supported the Butch Lewis Act. Over a million workers would still be facing a crisis and not being able to access their earned retirement if we still had a Trump administration. There are record numbers of people accessing health care because the Biden-Harris Administration has spent the time to get folks enrolled in the ACA to be able to access health care. These are gains, brothers, sisters, and siblings, that would not have happened under a Trump administration. These are gains that matter to your pocketbooks, gains that matter to your kitchen table because you need food on that table to survive. These are gains that matter to your kids’ future because they need jobs. Not everybody’s going to college. They need good union jobs to help them survive and earn a respectable living into the future. That does not come with that man who does not believe in us. We believe in us as working people. So pay attention, don’t be snowed by the bullshit. We know better.

Workers need elected officials who will fight for us and our priorities. In this race, the choice is clear: when it comes to retirement security, affordable healthcare, workers’ rights and more, only @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz have the values and vision to deliver.

.@steelworkers member & US Steel worker Rob Jones of Penn Hills was my guest at the PM of Japan’s address today. With the US Steel potential sale to Nippon Steel under review, workers like Rob who make this iconic company run & whose jobs are in the balance can’t be forgotten.

Today, a group of unions led by USW filed a petition on shipbuilding. We’ll always stand against China’s unfair practices — and as long as I am president, I’ll fight for U.S. workers and jobs. @USTradeRep will take a hard look at this petition in accordance with the law.
Ambassador Katherine Tai@AmbassadorTai

USTR and the Biden-Harris Administration are fighting every day to put working families first, rebuild American manufacturing, and strengthen our supply chains. I look forward to reviewing this petition in detail.
