Fighting for better jobs, communities and a brighter future. RTs ≠ endorsements.

Chuck is a hero not a scapegoat: you, others know about Carrier because of his, members' tireless work since day 1 to save ALL jobs there.
Chuck Jones, who is President of United Steelworkers 1999, has done a terrible job representing workers. No wonder companies flee country!.

We really love this guy ❤️ Because @JohnFetterman knows us - he’s our literal neighbor who lives across the street from our mill and union hall, and always been our friend. Can’t wait to see you in the U.S. Senate, pal. #1u #USWVoices #Elections2022 #EverybodysUnion

Dues have helped us file 45+ cases against bad trade; saving jobs in tire, paper, steel, etc. We walk the walk. #imwithchuck #wearewithchuck
If United Steelworkers 1999 was any good, they would have kept those jobs in Indiana. Spend more time working-less time talking. Reduce dues.

We don't give everyone an endorsement either. We're supporting @Tim_Walz and @PeggyFlanagan for #MNgov. They fight for working people - not corporations. #USWVotes #1u.
The Steelworkers don’t give everyone a koozie. Some really great conversations with hard-working Minnesotans tonight. The “DFL” really has to remove “FL” from their party.

We’re moved that so many of you are supporting “Tito.” He is our brother. Period. He is documented. People are not legal or illegal, and we apologize for our poor choice of words in telling a story we are so proud of - with love. #USWUnity #1u #CHR2019.
When legal immigrant Ernesto “Tito” Ochoa of Local 6787 was detained by ICE on his way to work, thrown in federal jail and threatened with deportation, he used his one call to phone his union. We had his back and fought to free him. That’s what #USWUnity is about. #chr2019 #1u
