USW Workers Rally for Fair Contract Settlements
Written by Sandy Williams
Union workers from US Steel and ArcelorMittal staged rallies and marches at locations across the country this week. Contract negotiations are stalled over concessions the companies want on health and retirement benefits.
Carrying signs and rallying to slogans like “United we bargain, divided we beg” and “No contract no peace,” thousands of USW members took to the streets to express their dissatisfaction with the contract proposals ArcelorMittal and US Steel have presented to union negotiators.
