Senator Rob Portman named “Steel Champion”

U.S. Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) was honored at the AISI’s Zanesville, Ohio Works with the “2015 Congressional Steel Champion Award” from the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI).


The award recognizes Senator Portman for his dedication to and support of the American steel industry and its employees.

The award was presented by James L. Wainscott, chairman, president and chief executive officer of AK Steel, and Thomas J. Gibson, president and chief executive officer of AISI. Also attending the ceremony were representatives from AK Steel’s corporate headquarters, along with employees of the Zanesville plant, including Thomas Harlan, president, UAW Local 4104.

“AK Steel and other domestic steelmakers have faced a tidal wave of what we believe are unfairly traded imports,” said Wainscott.

AISI president and chief executive officer Thomas Gibson commented, “Senator Portman played a key role in getting recent trade legislation signed into law to improve the effectiveness of antidumping and countervailing duty laws to combat unfairly traded imports. These come at a key time for the steel industry.”
