Steelworkers Strike In Pueblo, Colorado
Over 1,000 members of United Steelworkers of America (USWA)
Locals 2102 and 3267 in Pueblo, Colorado, (above) and
Portland, Oregon, respectively have been on strike against
CF&I/Oregon Steel since early October. According to the union,
the company has made huge profits since workers gave
concessions worth $35 million four years ago. The steelworkers
are fighting company demands for massive forced overtime, and
calling for respect of seniority, adequate health coverage
for retirees, and pensions comparable to other steelworkers.
