United Steelworkers (USW) District 4 includes the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont and the territory of Puerto Rico.
When we see policies that will impact our core issues - collective bargaining, safety and health, job security, retirement security, domestic economic issues, and health care – we engage. The Build Back Better Act is one of those policies.
Hochul will provide strong leadership during a time when New York needs it most and the USW is extremely proud to be the first industrial international union to endorse her given her long track record of fighting for working families.
The settlement comes at a time when business is expanding for the 3M Meriden plant, which makes metal filters for military equipment, filters for pharmaceutical companies, and filtration systems for residences, industry and commercial food business.
For her commitment to standing up for working people and for supporting her community through natural disaster, Mayra Rivera is District 4’s 2021 USW Cares Jefferson Award winner.
