Hundreds of U.S. Steel workers gathering outside the company’s namesake tower in downtown Pittsburgh for a rally in support of the sale to Nippon Steel on Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2024.

In recent months, Pittsburgh has been the center of a national conversation on an international sale.

The proposed purchase of U.S. Steel by Nippon Steel in a $14.9 billion deal still faces opposition from politicians on both sides as well as the U.S. Department of Justice.

As the 2024 election ramps up, the conversation of the sale’s impact on Pittsburgh and the American Steel industry is being debated by local and national leaders alike.

Here to give us the ins and outs on U.S. Steel’s hard sell is TribLive reporter Jack Troy. He joins TribLive host Zac Gibson.
