United Steelworkers (USW) District 11 includes the states of Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming.
The United Steelworkers (USW) union today announced its support for NewRange Copper Nickel’s plan to conduct a series of studies for the company’s NorthMet project.
Thirty-five USW members in Hibbing, Minn., who work as home care and hospice workers at Fairview Range Medical Center, last month ratified their first union contract, lasting through 11 months of bargaining and overcoming a robust anti-union campaign.
Prior to getting hired at Arconic, Tonya Clark worked in home healthcare where she served some of the most vulnerable community members. Now, she is grateful to lend a hand via her union that feels like home.
The 40 new members work at Edgewood Healthcare Sierra Hills in a variety of positions, including Registered Nurses (RN), Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA), dietary aides, housekeepers, bus drivers, and more.
Today we received personal assurances that President Joe Biden has our backs. He’s always been a friend to the American worker and our union, and we’re grateful he’s taking an interest in this matter.
We encourage USW activists to get involved in securing our democracy by joining voter outreach programs, volunteering at the polls, and educating our communities about issues impacting Black workers and families.
Our union worked to get New York Assembly Bill A3913B passed, requiring employers to display information on veterans’ benefits and services. We're excited to share that next year, through our Rapid Response network and our new, Constitutionally-mandated Veterans of Steel committees, we will be working to pass this kind of law in other states. International President Tom Conway outlines our ideas and goals a bit more in this video. #EverybodysUnion#VetsOfSteel#1u
Our USW International President Tom Conway didn't hold back in his message about the infrastructure bills. Watch now! #WeSupplyAmerica ##USWMade
