Steelworkers Strike In Pueblo, Colorado  
Over 1,000 members of United Steelworkers of America (USWA) Locals 2102 and 3267 in Pueblo, Colorado, (above) and Portland, Oregon, respectively have been on strike against CF&I/Oregon Steel since early October. According to the union, the company has made huge profits since workers gave concessions worth $35 million four years ago. The steelworkers are fighting company demands for massive forced overtime, and calling for respect of seniority, adequate health coverage for retirees, and pensions comparable to other steelworkers.
