    Grassroots: Rapid Response is the Steelworkers' nonpartisan grassroots education, communication, and action program that involves every member.

    Communication: Rapid Response allows for almost instant personal communication with every USW member on any given subject.

All information identifies the issue, its effect on workers and their families, and the sponsors and supporters.  It also asks for a specific response.
