Hillary Clinton Endorsed by the United Steelworkers

On Wednesday, the United Steelworkers endorsed Hillary Clinton for President of the United States. The endorsement comes one day after Clinton cleared the delegate threshold required to become the Democratic Party nominee for president. In a statement released by the labor union, they said, “Given her vast experience both with foreign and domestic policy, Hillary Clinton is a supremely qualified candidate, one of the most qualified candidates ever to seek the presidency.” Clinton responded to the endorsement saying that steel is critical to the economy, and she vowed to stand beside labor unions and ensure their rights. Clinton’s statement is below:

“I am honored to have earned the endorsement of the United Steelworkers.

The USW helped build America—and along the way, they have helped build the mighty American middle class.

Steel is crucial to our economy, our manufacturing base, and our national security. As President, I will stand with the USW in the fight to protect workers’ fundamental rights to organize, to bargain collectively, to stay safe on the job and retire with dignity. As a Senator from New York, I stood with steelworkers against efforts to undermine the competitiveness of American steel. And as President, I will throw the book at China and stop their illegal efforts to dump cheap steel in U.S. markets.

And together, we will fight to make the kinds of investments that make America’s economy grow for workers everywhere. We’ll make the biggest investment in infrastructure since Dwight Eisenhower built the Interstate Highway System, and make sure that we’re buying American materials to build America’s infrastructure. We’ll invest in manufacturing, because we can and we will make things in America.

Above all, I will always have workers’ backs. Unions like USW will always have a seat at the table and a champion in the White House. Because when workers are strong, families are strong—and when families are strong, America is strong.”
