Tax Bill Encourages Corps. to Ship Jobs Overseas
Call Your Senators at 877-607-0785 – As tax reform looms over Capitol Hill, it is important to understand what could be at stake. Cuts are heavily weighted to corporations and the wealthiest. According to the Tax Policy Center, “Compared to current law, 9 percent of taxpayers would pay more in 2019, 12 percent in 2025, and 50 percent in 2027.” Those increases fall to low- and middle-income Americans, rather than the wealthiest. In selling the plan, proponents argue that benefits will trickle down to the middle class, despite these increases. Reality says something different.

Goodyear: #USWMade NASCAR Tires
Inside every Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series tire is a name — the name of a Steelworker from Local Union 2L in Akron, Ohio. For 69 years, 255 of our brothers and sisters have made these Goodyear tires by hand, ensuring every tire shipped out of the plant is not just a quality product, but one that will keep NASCAR drivers safe during races as they hit speeds exceeding 200 miles per hour. Click here to read more about the hands-on craftsmanship and why “quality and safety over quantity” is so important. #USWMade

Help by visiting: usw.org/relief. My name is Luis Mendoza and I'm a Steelworker staff member who was visiting family in Puerto Rico when Hurricane Maria hit last week. What I saw was like a horrific movie scene, and although I got out, my friends and family remain in crisis, including Steelworkers members.
