WESTMORELAND – Senate President Pro Tempore Kim Ward (R-39) issued the following statement regarding President Donald Trump’s comments on Nippon’s investment in U.S. Steel:
“President Trump has always fought for America, so I had no doubt he would fight for the steelworkers and their families in southwestern Pennsylvania by taking a second look at the deal. While we are still waiting to hear the details of the potential investment, this is a positive development and is good news for the future of southwestern Pennsylvania, the steelworkers, and our heritage.
“President Trump is correcting a failure of the Biden Administration by building global alliances that benefit America while Gov. Josh Shapiro continues to remain on the sidelines.”
