Organizer
Pittsburgh, Pa. – A gathering of Community and Environmental Justice groups and advocates will gather in front of the Steel building on Grant Street on April 12 during the U.S. Steel Special Meeting of Stockholders to request a People’s Vote for a healthier future in the Mon Valley.
The Rally Will Take Place Friday, April 12
Noon to 2 PM
Grant and 6th Streets in front of UPMC/ Steel Building
Mon Valley residents and Environmental Justice advocates are demanding a seat at the table, #ProtectOurHealth, and a leadership commitment to a future that builds healthier communities in the Mon Valley that ensure clean air and water. Mon Valley residents and groups will speak throughout the hour of their wish to ensure that any vote of company shareholders hears the voice of impacted communities and stops the ongoing legacy of pollution and harm they have suffered.
To be clear, these advocates are not expressing a viewpoint on the sale itself. They do accept that a diversity of viewpoints may be shared on the sale of USS by workers and union members who may be present. They are expressing a concern and need to have their voices heard and addressed as part of a sale process that will have major impacts on the communities where U.S. Steel facilities exist in the Mon Valley.
