Rep. Rick Larsen, WA-02, today hailed the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers District 751 vote to approve a contract extension with Boeing.
“Tonight’s vote by the union is a huge step forward for all of Northwest Washington,” Larsen said. “Not only does this secure production of the 737-MAX in Washington, but it gives these deserving workers the fair contracts they have earned. I applaud both the union and company leaders who worked out this strong agreement. Looking forward, this agreement enhances Washington’s competitiveness to secure future manufacturing by the best aerospace workers in the world.”
