Siskin Steel Celebrates 125th Anniversary
'This milestone is both a celebration of business excellence and a tribute to our company's deep commitment to family and community'— Dan Youngman, Siskin Steel President
CHATTANOOGA, TN, UNITED STATES, June 3, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Siskin Steel & Supply Company, Inc. is proudly celebrating 125 years in business, marking more than a century of growth, innovation and community impact.
Founded in 1900 in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Siskin Steel began with just a $5 investment and the determination of Robert Siskin, who started collecting and selling scrap metal to support his family. After Robert's passing in 1926, his sons, Mose and Garrison Siskin, expanded the business by selling new steel, which laid the foundation for the full-service metal supplier the company is today.
Now, 125 years later, Siskin Steel offers a wide range of products, including alloy, aluminum, carbon, and stainless steel, as well as comprehensive metal processing services. Siskin Steel was acquired as a wholly owned subsidiary of Reliance, Inc. (NYSE: RS) in 1996. Since then, the company has expanded beyond its Chattanooga roots with locations in Nashville, Tennessee; Louisville, Kentucky; and Spartanburg, South Carolina. It also acquired East Tennessee Steel in 2000 and Southern Steel Supply in 2023.
Siskin Steel's story is not only one of business success but also one of enduring service to the community. In 1950, the Siskin brothers established what is now the Siskin Children's Institute, followed by the founding of the Siskin Hospital for Physical Rehabilitation in 1990. In 2017, the Siskin Children's Institute presented the company with its Corporate Philanthropy Award. Siskin Steel's legacy of giving continues through ongoing support and partnerships with local charitable organizations.
'This milestone is both a celebration of business excellence and a tribute to our company's deep commitment to family and community,' said Siskin Steel President Dan Youngman. 'We are honored to celebrate 125 years of the Siskin Steel legacy.'

Trump Launches Signup Website For $5M ‘Trump Card' Visas
President Donald Trump on Wednesday night announced the $5 million Gold Card visa is now open for signups, allowing wealthy foreign nationals to register their interest in the program, which intends to offer them a fast track to U.S. citizenship—something the president has suggested may replace the existing investor visa program. US President Donald Trump holds the $5 million dollar Gold Card as he speaks to reporters while in ... More flight on board Air Force One, en route to Miami, Florida in April. In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump shared a link to the website—which refers to the visa as 'The Trump Card.' In his post, Trump claimed, 'Thousands have been calling and asking how they can sign up,' for the program and noted, 'THE WAITING LIST IS NOW OPEN.' The website itself is thin on information, with no dates mentioned for when the so-called 'Trump Card' will be available other than a mention that it 'is coming.' The signup form on the website asks people to share their names, the region of the world they are from, if they are a business or an individual, and if they are signing up for themselves or someone else. According to the site, people who sign up will be 'notified the moment access opens' for the visa. The site also includes an image of the 'Trump Card,' featuring a photo and signature of the president—a version of which he showed reporters aboard Air Force One back in April. Trump first announced the gold card in February and he said it would grant recipients the same privileges as green card holders, who have permanent residency in the U.S. Trump argued the card was a way to get 'wealthy people' to invest in the U.S. by 'spending a lot of money, paying a lot of taxes and employing a lot of people.' Trump has claimed he does not need Congressional approval to launch the program, arguing that its beneficiaries are only offered a quicker path to citizenship rather than outright buying citizenship. At the time of the announcement, the president suggested that the gold card program could be rolled out within two weeks. But since then, details about a timeline have been scant. Last month, billionaire Elon Musk, who at the time was heading the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency, tweeted that the government was 'doing a quiet trial' of the program, 'to make sure the system works properly.' Musk added: 'Once it is fully tested, it will be rolled out to the public with an announcement by the President.' But it is unclear what this supposed trial entailed. The Wired also reported last month that some 'U.S. permanent residents and foreign visitors' signing up for the Customs and Border Patrol's 'Global Entry' trusted traveller program were being asked if they had applied for the 'Trump Card Visa.' The new Trump Card website makes no mention of a launch date.

Elk Grove 8th graders' final-quarter grades will only count toward promotion participation
ELK GROVE — Grades will not count as much for 8th-grade students in the Elk Grove Unified School District after it passed a policy that said only grades from the fourth quarter of the school year will count when deciding whether to participate in the promotion ceremony. This means a student could technically fail most of the year, but if they get good grades in the final quarter of 8th grade, they will be able to walk across the stage with their classmates. "What's the point of me showing up?" said Derrick Brown, an 8th-grade science teacher at Samuel Jackman Middle School. Brown has been dedicated to preparing his students for high school for decades and told CBS13 that kids used to need to complete 50 out of 60 credits in order to participate in the promotion ceremony. "Now you're discrediting me as a teacher. How can I hold kids accountable if they are sitting there saying, 'Well, it doesn't count anyway?' " said Brown. It is a district-wide middle school criteria change that states to participate in the promotion ceremony, you can have no more than one "F" in the 4th quarter of 8th grade, you must pay off any fees like library books and you cannot get suspended in the fourth quarter of the school year. "I have gotten straight-A's basically all my life, and so I want to keep it that way," said incoming 8th grader at Joseph Kerr Middle School, Tessa McMahan. She is curious how the policy could impact classrooms and students' willingness to participate and learn. "I know it was really hard keeping my grades up and staying focused when the other students were always interrupting my teacher and stuff," said McMahan. Elk Grove Unified told CBS13 that several of its middle schools already had this policy, so the change was about equity and consistency. "We really care about his grades, and we think it's important to get good grades," said parent Euna Helms. Helms said the grades her incoming 8th grader son gets reflect his hard work and create habits she hopes will carry him through life. "Folks who say middle school grades don't matter anyway. It doesn't go on your permanent record," said Brown. "That's not the point. The point is accountability." The policy will be in place for all nine Elk Grove Unified middle schools for the 2025-2026 school year.
