Mr. MRVAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in solidarity with the hardworking men and women of the United Steelworkers who have been locked out of their jobs for almost 2 months at the British Petroleum facility in Whiting, Indiana.
attacks against organized labor, the gutting of the Department of Labor, and a National Labor Relations Board that only sides with corporate interests.
At the same time, an estimated $8 billion hydrogen project at the same British Petroleum facility was canceled after the administration demanded that the tax credits be removed in the Republican reconciliation bill to offset tax cuts for the corporations and the most wealthy.
women on the job today, creating new economic activity and jobs for a generation. Instead, they are locked out.
high-risk environment at a refinery. Today, the replacement workers not only put their lives at risk but everyone in my community.
realize negotiation is not accepting the terms that created the lockout, and be able to return to good-faith negotiations and put skilled workers back on the job before a preventable tragedy occurs simply due to corporate greed.
