USW calls on U.S. Steel to get a deal done

United Steelworkers and United States Steel Corp. negotiators are heading back to the bargaining table. And steelworkers say it’s time for the Pittsburgh-based steel and iron ore producer to show movement. Labor contract negotiations between the two sides resumes Friday in Pittsburgh, according to a United Steelworkers (USW) update to its union members who work at U.S. Steel facilities. “As you know, we reached a TA (tentative agreement) with Cliffs last Friday,” the USW said. “USS knows how this process works. They agreed to meet with us on Friday.

Allegheny County officials are launching a communitywide campaign to help residents maintain Medicaid coverage as new federal eligibility requirements take effect Jan. 1, 2027. The changes, enacted under the federal Big Beautiful Bill Act, will require many Medicaid recipients to renew their coverage every six months and answer additional questions on lengthy renewal forms.
