Statement from Senator Justin Eichorn (R-Grand Rapids) on U.S. Steel’s plan to build a $150 million DR-grade pellet production system on the Iron Range:

“This is great news for the Iron Range and all of Northern Minnesota,” Eichorn said. “This big investment will generate good-paying jobs and be a boost to the Range economy. I will continue to do my part to help bring job-creating projects, like this one, to Northern Minnesota.”
