Steelworkers Union Backs Cleveland-Cliffs in U.S. Steel Takeover

The United Steelworkers union (USW) has announced its support for Cleveland-Cliffs in a potential takeover of U.S. Steel. Cleveland-Cliffs stated that it is the only realistic buyer capable of acquiring U.S. Steel in its entirety and would uphold contracts with USW employees.
