Many veterans struggle transitioning to civilian life, and too often the benefits meant to help them go unused. The Thomas M. Conway Veterans Access to Resources in the Workplace Act would require employers to post notices outlining available veteran benefits.

Tens of millions of Americans rely on the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to certify safety equipment, conduct research and make recommendations that keep them safe on the job. But the current administration wants to gut the agency, putting lives at risk.

As revelations of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes stirred revulsion among Americans, he came to symbolize something more—a broader system that’s rigged for the rich & designed to exploit everyone else. Unions serve as counterweight to his class of billionaires & other bullies.

We applaud and thank the bipartisan coalition in the U.S. House that stood with America’s workers today and passed the Protect America’s Workforce Act. Read the full statement here: usw.org/press-releas...

Why do we unionize? Because it's only in stories that grumpy misers realize that hoarding wealth hurts everyone – including themselves – and agree to pay their workers more. 🎄🎁

For 46 years, Mike Keck has helped lead Local 182B with a strong sense of family, community, and pride in American-made work. At Peerless Quality in Illinois, our siblings build top-notch stoves and uplift each other on and off the job. Read more: usw.org/news/peerles...

The top 10 U.S. billionaires added hundreds of billions to their wealth this year. Meanwhile, over 40% of Americans — including 50% kids — are low-income. We deserve leaders and policymakers who have everyone's best interests in mind. Read more: ow.ly/Vk3v50Xw3eT

Corning workers in North Carolina & Michigan are exercising their constitutional right to unionize with @steelworkers.bsky.social for better wages, benefits & working conditions.  Corning must stop its illegal union busting & intimidation. I stand in solidarity with these brave workers.

The U.S. spends billions on DFC projects abroad — but there’s no requirement to use American-made products. USW and allies are pushing to add domestic content, labor and environmental standards so U.S. workers benefit. Read more in Pres. McCall’s op-ed: thehill.com/opinion/fina...

The current administration promised to lower prices – instead, they are soaring. Coffee is up 19%, beef is up 15%, and bananas are up 7%. The average household spending has increased by $700 per month. Read more from President McCall’s latest blog: usw.org/the-empty-pr...

Last week, we joined with our labor allies to urge the administration not to back down on trade measures that protect America’s shipbuilding industry. Workers have seen what happens when our shipyards are sidelined and our jobs are shipped overseas. We can’t afford to retreat again.

Pittsburgh college professors, including USW members, called on Sen. Dave McCormick to protect student aid and research funding. USW member Will Evans spoke to the group about the kind of work being delayed by federal cuts, including his research on treatment for stroke victims.

USW brothers Max and Ben Morrissey were recognized for their heroic actions that likely saved many of their coworkers in an accident that claimed their lives at the Toledo Refinery three years ago. The Oregon City Council voted Monday night to name a section of a local avenue in their honor.

"CEOs, alongside their political cronies, are plotting to cram even more into their pockets, break the #MiddleClass and create a permanent underclass of workers without economic power or the political clout that goes with it." - @steelworkers.bsky.social President Dave Mcall. usw.org/the-plot-to-...

Enemy of Labor #3? George Pullman ❌ He built luxury railcars while exploiting workers. In 1894, he cut wages but kept rents high in his company town. When workers protested, he crushed them—sparking the violent Pullman Strike. Profits over people, every time.

The plan to eliminate the Chemical Safety Board would gut a vital safeguard. After the BP-Husky explosion killed two USW brothers, the CSB’s investigation helped prevent future tragedies. Cutting it won’t save money—but it will cost lives. Read more: usw.org/news/chemica...

On this day in 1963, more than 250,000 people gathered for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. It demanded fair wages, equal rights, and dignity on the job—and showed that civil rights and labor rights are inseparable.

"Purely partisan #redistricting has turned the entire political process upside down, enabling officials to dictate to the voters and remain in office no matter how much harm they inflicted on millions of working people." - @steelworkers.bsky.social President David McCall usw.org/gerrymanderi...

Enemy of Labor #2: Henry Clay Frick. 👎 Carnegie’s ruthless lieutenant, he sent Pinkertons to attack striking steelworkers in 1892, killing & injuring dozens to crush the union and protect profits. ❌ We’ll never forget.

Unions boost wages 🚀 On average, a union worker earns 12.8% more in wages than their nonunionized peers. But unions don’t just help union workers—they help ALL workers by raising standards. Read our new report about how unions are good for workers AND communities: www.epi.org/publication/...

Welcome to our new series: Enemies of Labor. Enemy #1? Andrew Carnegie. He built a name on libraries and philanthropy — but built his fortune by exploiting workers. Carnegie’s steel empire violently broke the Homestead Strike, slashed wages and fought unions at every turn.

Kenny of @steelworkers.bsky.social Local 8888: “I’m a third-generation shipbuilder… Trump wants to cut millions of dollars from OSHA’s budget and eliminate more than 200 of the agency’s staff. Cuts to OSHA would put tens of millions of workers in every sector of the economy at risk.
