United Steelworkers of America. District 36G
The Committee for Industrial Organization was founded in 1935 within the American Federation of Labor as a means of gaining new union members in a changing economy. The Steelworkers Organizing Committee was formed in 1936 as the body that would specifically target the organization of steelworkers. After a successful organizing campaign, the United Steelworkers of America was founded in 1942 at a meeting between SWOC and the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers. The union became a member of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, which was created in opposition of the AFL. District 10 of the USWA represents workers in locals throughout Pennsylvania.
