Harris and Biden campaign in Pittsburgh as presidential race enters the home stretch
PITTSBURGH — Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, told an audience of union workers on Monday that she believes that Pittsburgh-based U.S. Steel should remain domestically owned and operated, echoing a pledge President Joe Biden made earlier this year.
“The President mentioned it: U.S. Steel is an historic American company, and it is vital for our nation to maintain a strong American steel company,” Harris said. “I couldn’t agree more with President Biden: U.S. Steel should remain in American hands.”
Japan-based Nippon Steel proposed to buy the Pittsburgh-based steelmaker last December, in a deal valued at $14.9 billion.
Harris also said she would pass the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, which would amend the National Labor Relations Act to provide additional supports for workers.
