Steelworkers from around the country were in D.C. this week to ask Congress to strengthen its support for the domestic steel industry.
Among them was Billy McCall, who’s worked at U.S. Steel’s huge Gary Works mill for more than 20 years.
He and other United Steelworkers union members talked with federal representatives this week about an ongoing trade investigation into the effect of excess Chinese steel imports on national security.
McCall says that’s about not just defense, but infrastructure and people.
