USW leader calls for steelworker aid to preserve jobs
USW President Lloyd McBride urged Carter to ensure any new federal aid to the domestic steel industry is used to protect steelworkers' jobs and to keep funds from being diverted to plastics or other investments. He said enforceable commitments from the steel sector are needed and that the union would seek Congressional action if aid is blocked. The group opposed immediate import restraints, citing internal issues and long term fixes, with structural steel market lines singled out as most endangered by imports.
