There was complete agreement between Open Borders Dimocrats (about all of them now days) and open Borders RINOS that tariffs would destroy our nations economy and those lost steel and coal producing jobs will never come back.

Wrong again, America Haters!

U.S. Steel Firing Up Furnace in Alabama, Thanks to Tariffs

United States Steel said Monday it will resume construction of a furnace in Alabama, adding 1.6 million tons of steelmaking capacity and hundreds of jobs.
Construction on U.S. Steel’s mill in Jefferson County, Alabama, was suspended in 2015 after China’s overproduction caused a global steel glut that sent prices plummeting. The tariffs the Trump administration imposed last year have reduced the flow of foreign steel in the U.S. and allowed domestic makers to expand again.

U.S. Steel Chief Executive Officer David Burritt said in a statement:

Thanks to the President’s strong trade actions and improved market conditions, support from the United Steelworkers and incentives from the State of Alabama and the Jefferson County Commission, we are excited to add EAF capabilities to our company’s footprint and provide sustainable tubular solutions for our customers.​

EAF refers to “election arc furnaces,” which make steel from scrap metal instead of iron ore. They are considered more energy efficient than traditional blast furnaces and can be restarted once shut down. Older furnaces often had to be retired once they were shut down.

The Alabama plant will be the company’s second major expansion following the imposition of steel tariffs. The company restarted two blast furnaces at its mill near St. Louis last year.

U.S. Steel said the electric furnace and related casting equipment will cost about $215 million and will add about 150 workers to the existing 750-person workforce.​

MAGA for the win, folks!

Doncha Corporate Crony minions just hate FACTS PROVEN TRUE?

I should hope so. The government is forcing people to buy from them, after all.

All What the President has done was. Start having companies to buy American. And have China and Canada import tax as equal to ours. What was going on. The other administration was making deals with China and Canada. By allowing them to pay very less on import taxes. But raising taxes on American steel manufacturers. And so companies were buying foreign steel because it cost less than ours. So Pres.Trump reversed that policy. Making sure that American's get first dibs on American's building contracts. And now foreign steel cost more than American steel.

Western PA in the House! I was just in Midland for a basketball game on Friday.
 
WOW! 150 new jobs! Meanwhile the tariffs could halt the hiring of 100 steelworkers in Pa.
ATI asks for exemption on Trump's steel tariffs

Did you not read your own cite, August?
"The company said it had to idle the Midland plant several years ago mostly due to “dumped and subsidized stainless imports from China.” Now that a tariff is finally in place, ATI said it is “confident” that it has satisfied the necessary criteria for an exemption, as per Department of Commerce regulations."

So, Our steel industry is so pathetic that it can't compete with countries like Canada without the help of tariffs?
