The resolution recognizes and celebrates Nucor Day at the State Capitol on March 7, 2023, highlighting Nucor Corporation's significant contributions to the steel industry and the Arkansas economy. As the largest steel producer in the U.S. and a leader in sustainability, Nucor recycles approximately 20 million tons of ferrous scrap metal annually, resulting in a greenhouse gas intensity that is significantly lower than the global average. Nucor has been operating in Arkansas since 1988, currently employing around 2,400 individuals across five facilities, and has a strong commitment to its workforce, with a history of never laying off employees and offering competitive salaries and profit-sharing.

Additionally, the resolution emphasizes Nucor's investment in Arkansas, having contributed over $1 billion to modernize its steel mills in the past five years. The company is also dedicated to education, providing scholarships to its employees and their dependents. Nucor's achievements include producing the largest beams in the Western Hemisphere and supplying steel for notable American structures. The resolution concludes by directing that a copy be sent to Nucor's CEO, acknowledging the company's impact and commitment to the community.
