Donald Trump said, "I will make taxes on steel from other countries bigger." This is to help steel workers in Pennsylvania.

He said the tax on aluminum will be 50%. The new taxes start on Wednesday.

Trump was at a factory. He talked about a deal. A company from Japan will give money to the factory.

Trump is in Washington. He needs to say yes to the deal.

I need to say yes to the plan with Nippon. We do not have the plan now. But they will give a lot of money. It is a big thing, he said.

Trump first said no. Now, a Japan company can own some of U.S. Steel.

We do not know if the deal is finished. We do not know who owns it. Nippon Steel wants to buy U.S. Steel. Nippon Steel will give money to U.S. Steel. They will not fire workers. They will not close plants.

We are here. We talk about a big deal. The company is American. Trump said this. He was at U.S. Steel. He said, "You are American, yes?"

Trump said, "We will put more tax on steel from other countries." He said this will make the steel business in the U.S. strong. But this can make steel cost more money.

Steel costs more now.

In March 2025, steel was $984 in the U.S. This is a high price. It is more than in Europe or China. The U.S. made much steel. It bought steel from Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and South Korea.

USA steel is strong. Trump helped. Nippon Steel wants to buy USA Steel.

The workers said no.

David McCall is the boss. He said the union is sad. A company from another country will buy U.S. Steel. He said this is bad for the country. It is bad for the workers. It is bad for the towns.

Trump said, "America will keep the company." It is good for cars and safety.

Trump wants new deals. He wants money for the U.S. He wants to make people happy. He wants to help workers.

U.S. Steel did not say anything about the new plan. Nippon Steel said yes to the plan, but they did not say the details.

Nippon wants to buy U.S. Steel. Nippon will give money for U.S. Steel factories. Americans will work there. The U.S. government will watch it.

Some workers have different ideas about the new company buying their company. But now, they think their company will close the factories near Pittsburgh.

Clifford works at a factory. Trump was there. Clifford thinks the factory will be better. It will make more things.

Our factory is old. We want to fix it. We want to make many things.

Trump thinks this is very important. He said no to the deal. Biden also said no.

Trump wants to help factories. U.S. Steel is a big company. It is important for Trump. The election is in Pennsylvania.

Trump said no to the deal. U.S. Steel must stay in the U.S. Its main office is in Pittsburgh.

The president said thank you.

He said: "You help us. We will make our own metal. We will make our own energy. We will make our country strong. We will use steel from Pennsylvania for America. This is good for America."

Trump said a company will give money to the U.S.

He was on stage. Some workers were with him.

Zugai's dad lost his job. Zugai talked to people. He wanted help for the steel company. He thought the company would close.

Zugai told Trump, "You are good." He said, "New steel plants in the U.S. are good for life."
