Militant/Tony LaneSteelworkers on strike against ATI and supporters rally May 15.
LOUISVILLE, Ohio Some 150 striking steelworkers, fellow United Steelworkers union members, retirees and other supporters rallied May 15, as 1,300 steelworkers here and in four other states continue their strike against Allegheny Technologies Inc.
ATI announced last December they were planning to shut down the Louisville plant. Since then no closure date and no severance package have been set.
“The company won’t give us a shutdown date, so do they want to shut it down?” Dave Burgess, one of the Louisville strikers, told the
Militant. “They’re trying to sway the union to take a bad contract.”
Statement by Malcolm Jarrett, Socialist Workers Party candidate for Pittsburgh mayor, May 19.
“Our strength does come from our sticking together,” Dave McCall, international vice president of the United Steelworkers, told a May 15 rally of striking steelworkers and their supporters in Louisville, Ohio. The support steelworkers are winning gives a glimpse of the potential for strengthening their strike against the union-busting bosses at ATI.
Solidarity can make a difference in their fight, as well as the strike of miners at Warrior Met in Alabama and other union battles. Workers in the mines, mills, factories, transportation and retail industries all face bosses trying to boost their profits off our backs.

Roger Stephenson OBE has withdrawn from the front line of Manchester architecture, from a position and cause he has been fighting for in his own name since 1979. He has made enemies and lost battles, but few would deny that Roger Stephenson OBE has had a greater impact on the shape and face of contemporary Manchester than any individual since Alfred Waterhouse. If Manchester has a look, it came out of the Stephenson closet. He was awarded a First Class Honours degree by Liverpool University School of Architecture in 1969. Stephenson is a progressive, and he moved through BDP and Michael Hyde & Associates (as a partner) before establishing Stephenson Mills (with George Mills) in 1979.
