Hyundai Steel Mill Push in Ascension Parish | Baton Rouge News

from Baton Rouge News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

In Ascension Parish, Louisiana, a grassroots coalition including the United Steelworkers, NAACP, and Sierra Club is rallying against the rush to approve Hyundai’s new steel mill, demanding local hiring guarantees, anti-discrimination protections, and at least 60 days to review 2,000 pages of environmental permits—calling out the state for giving only 30. Local business owners like Glenn Price support the project’s potential but insist on transparency, urging corporations to work for the community. Good Neighbors Louisiana continues organizing residents to pressure Hyundai into binding community agreements, ensuring this massive development truly benefits locals—not just shareholders.
