It's amazing for me to see the factory that I literally grew up across the river from — and tbh, which probably gave me asthma — making world headlines. And for the most terrible possible reasons.
I'm thinking about the family members who lost loved ones, and about the first responders who were confronted with a horrible situation yesterday.
And feeling solidarity with my fellow members of the #Steelworkers union.

They were announced during #Trump’s visit to a #US #Steel mill last week, & appear to be aimed at currying favor w/ #steelworkers & the steel industry, including those in swing states like #Pennsylvania, where #USSteel is based.

#unions are companies too when it comes to buying products and organizing for themselves.
The days when the #steelworkers union infiltrated a company union and organized a steel company from the inside are long gone.
It would be great if union leadership once again paid attention to technology and the antagonism they face from companies in general.
