Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to announce that U.S. Steel should remain domestically owned and not move forward with an overseas merger at a campaign event in Pennsylvania on Monday. 

Her planned statement coincides with an earlier sentiment from the White House opposing U.S. Steel’s planned sale to the Japan-based Nippon Steel. Harris will make these statements alongside President Joe Biden as she and Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), her running mate, separately embark on a tour of the Midwest on Labor Day to tout their commitment to workers.
