Pro-worker organizations argue for targeted tariffs
- Congressman Chris Deluzio spoke at Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders' Fighting Oligarchy tour stop in Harrisburg as Cleveland Cliffs announced a temporary closure of a Steelton plant affecting 500 workers.
- This event follows President Trump's March announcement of a 25% tariff on all steel imports, which companies had hoped would revive domestic steel jobs amid ongoing plant idlings.
- Deluzio and union representatives advocate for targeted enforcement, muscular industrial policy focused on national security sectors, and pro-worker measures like the PRO Act to strengthen collective bargaining rights.
- Lourenco Goncalves, CEO of Cleveland Cliffs, stated that the tariffs disadvantage foreign rivals operating under different regulations while benefiting U.S. Manufacturers who invest in American workers and production.
- Advocates urge coordinated, worker-centered trade strategies beyond current blanket tariffs, warning of ongoing global economic instability and emphasizing the need to hold trade violators accountable.
