Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris stressed the importance of keeping U.S. Steel in American hands during a Labor Day rally in Pennsylvania, appearing with President Joe Biden. This rally marked their first joint appearance since Harris took over from Biden as the Democratic front-runner in July, addressing over 600 attendees at a union hall.

Harris declared that U.S. Steel's American ownership is crucial, aligning her position with Biden, who had previously stated in March that the company must remain domestically owned.

The announcement comes amid broader election campaign strategies, including Harris's supportive comments for steel workers and Trump's efforts targeting unionized workers. Developments in Gaza, including hostages and ceasefire talks, continue to influence the U.S. election narrative.
