Gary residents push for Nippon Steel to use $3.1B investment for safer, cleaner upgrades
Residents in Gary, Indiana, are drawing a line in the sand against U.S. Steel and its parent company, Japan-based Nippon Steel, after experiencing ongoing health issues linked to local factory emissions. Gary Councilwoman Lori Latham (1st District) joins Good Day Chicago to discuss the community's urgent push regarding a massive $3.1 billion investment commitment. While the steel giants plan to use funds to extend the life of aging, coal-based blast furnaces, local leaders and residents are fighting to ensure this money is instead used to transition to newer, cleaner, and safer steelmaking technologies.
