EVERETT, WA – Rep. Rick Larsen (WA-02), the lead Democrat on the House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee, released the below statement after Boeing announced a series of leadership transitions on Monday:

“The Boeing Company needs to get back to what it has done best: designing and engineering the safest and best airplanes in the world. That starts with Boeing getting back to its roots as an engineering company and away from its multi-decades focus of being a financial services company.

“Moving forward, the women and men who work at Boeing need leaders who match their commitment to safety and quality at every step of the plane making process. Boeing’s new leadership team must work hard to earn back the trust of its customers and the flying public.”
