| The Women of Steel Committee went to Pittsburgh! Joining over 1200 other Union Sisters (and a few brothers) at the Women of Steel Conference October 16-20, 2010, our committee volunteered for phone-banking and took classes that will benefit all of our members. An impromptu street rally was formed in support of Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, (D-California) who was featured at the conference. A small group of protesters were shouted down by all the Women of Steel who clearly feel that Speaker Pelosi was the "Best Speaker Ever!" |
