Armco Locks Out Mansfield Steel Workers
Armco Inc locked out about 650 Mansfield workers after labor talks failed. The company paused operations when the expired contract with United Steelworkers Local 169 ended at 12:01 a.m. and said it would fill customer orders while not disclosing details. The dispute centers on terms of a three year contract and the union claimed management chose to board up facilities rather than negotiate.

Ohio Welfare Reform Leaves Working Poor Struggling
Ex welfare recipient Laurie Hatten earns nearly nine dollars an hour but cannot cover basics like health insurance and child care. A Children’s Defense Fund Ohio report profiling four families highlights how many Ohioans work yet still fall short, due to limited aid, stigma, and opaque eligibility for subsidized care. The study urges state reform, stronger outreach, extended office hours, and a merged social services job training agency to support working poor families.

Supreme Court brief filed over Ohio school funding
The Ohio Coalition for Equity and Adequacy filed a brief in the state’s appeal arguing the funding system remains tilted toward property taxes and insufficient for a thorough and efficient education. They urge appointing a special master to negotiate a settlement, while the state contends it has met the 1997 ruling.
