    In Attempt to Avoid Being Voted Out, PA Steelworkers Union Bosses Secretly ‘Ratify’ Contract Workers Twice Overwhelmingly Rejected

    September 20, 2022 // Kerry Hunsberger leads an employee push to vote out the Steelworkers union at Latrobe Specialty Steel.

The “contract bar” arbitrarily immunizes unions from employee decertification votes for up to three years after a contract between union and company officials is finalized.
