The Congressional Steel Caucus is a bipartisan caucus of the United States Congress whose members represent regions with steel manufacturers or care about the health of the American steel industry. Caucus members will routinely meet with the current officials from the Administration and international organization representatives to promote the interests of the American industry and its steelworkers.[1]
Founded in the early 1970s by Representatives John Murtha (D-PA) and Ralph Regula (R-OH), this bi-partisan coalition promotes the health and stability of the domestic steel industry, as well as the interests of its workforce.
The House Steel Caucus is extremely active on Capitol Hill, frequently holding policy-forums, media briefings, and hearings regarding issues affecting domestic steel producers and their downstream counterparts.
A prominent Senate organization consisting of nearly three dozen members, the Caucus operates as a bi-partisan coalition advocating for domestic steel producers and workers. In addition to introducing legislation supporting the domestic steel community, members also routinely meet with Administration officials and WTO representatives to communicate the interests of American producers and labor groups.
