District 13

District 13 of our union includes the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas.

Welcome to District 13 of the USW

Steelworkers in District 13 work in the oil refineries of Texas and Louisiana. They work in the paper mills of Arkansas and Oklahoma. They manufacture rubber and chemicals, forge steel, produce pulp, build luxury RVs and, while they’re at it, they keep the economies of their four states moving forward.

“The members in District 13 play a vital role in making sure our nation can fulfill its most basic needs, from paper products to personal care items, to oil and gas for heating and transportation. They are an essential part of our nation’s past, present and future.”
