American Steel
is Back.
From skyscrapers to bridges, from factories to our military, American steel has powered every chapter of our nation’s story.
The Trump Administration has been a steadfast champion of the domestic steel industry. In this message, U.S. Trade Representative Ambassador Jamieson Greer explains why a strong American steel industry is essential to our economic and national security, and how this Administration is taking decisive action to level the playing field for American steelmakers and manufacturers.
American Steel Redefined
Electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking is changing the face of American steel. With cutting-edge technology, a skilled workforce, and a relentless drive to innovate, EAF steel is powering our economy and creating thousands of American jobs. Over 70% of all steel made in the U.S. is produced using this innovative method, efficient, modern, and proudly American. EAF steel is the backbone of our country. And the strength of American steel is continuously cast by the members of SMA. We are the Steel Manufacturers Association.
