Members of Congress Should Support America’s Steel Industry and Workers

Tags Jobs Trade

Alliance for American Manufacturing President Scott Paul wrote to Members of Congress on Wednesday to encourage them to stand behind American steelworkers and companies and support President Trump's decision to defend American industry.

In the letter, Paul busts many of the myths being put forth by opponents of the Section 232 action. These scare tactics are "unsatisfying at best," he writes, adding that "America's steel workers are hurting, their communities are on the brink, and each passing day without action puts our national security at risk."

Said Paul: 

"It's time for our lawmakers to put politics aside and support these tariffs. Our national security and steel jobs depend on it."
