President Donald Trump is holding a rally at the U.S. Steel Corporation near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Friday afternoon.
President Trump announced last week that U.S. Steel isn’t being sold off to a foreign company after all. Instead, he said the American company will form a “partnership” with Japan’s Nippon Steel, and will stay right here in the United States.
In a Truth Social post on May 23, Trump wrote:
I am proud to announce that, after much consideration and negotiation, US Steel will REMAIN in America, and keep its Headquarters in the Great City of Pittsburgh. For many years, the name, “United States Steel” was synonymous with Greatness, and now, it will be again.
This will be a planned partnership between United States Steel and Nippon Steel, which will create at least 70,000 jobs, and add $14 Billion Dollars to the U.S. Economy. The bulk of that Investment will occur in the next 14 months. This is the largest Investment in the History of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
My Tariff Policies will ensure that Steel will once again be, forever, MADE IN AMERICA. From Pennsylvania to Arkansas, and from Minnesota to Indiana, AMERICAN MADE is BACK. I will see you all at US Steel, in Pittsburgh, on Friday, May 30th, for a BIG Rally. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!
Local steel workers are praising Trump for saving U.S. Steel and keeping the jobs in the U.S. WATCH:
“I can take a breath today.”
“It’s like early Christmas around here.”
“I was crying. I’m not ashamed to admit it.”

Rep. Pete Stauber (R-Minn.) wrote, “It’s an honor to be in Pittsburgh to celebrate the historic partnership between US Steel & Nippon Steel. This partnership will revive America’s steel industry, and the benefits will be felt right here in Northern MN. I thank President Trump for making American Steel Great Again.”
