One lawsuit asked a court to set aside Biden’s order and the review process by a U.S. government panel.

The second lawsuit is against Cleveland-Cliffs (NYSE:), its CEO Lourenco Goncalves, and USW union President David McCall “for their illegal and coordinated actions” aimed at preventing the deal, U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel said.
