I’m confused as to how (or if) this affects the new SC plant and NLRB actions.
excerpt:
The 28,000 members of the International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers will vote on the contract deal next week, the union said on Wednesday.
If ratified, the union said it would drop its grievances against the company over its establishment of a new 787 production site in South Carolina, which is the subject of a dispute between Boeing and the NLRB.
South Carolina & Washington Ping?
This NLRB/commie fiasco is a good reason to outlaw Unions in the USA.
Here’s a newsflash for the NLRB and the Unions:
(Boeing should have said...)
We’re opening our S. C. plant and proceeding with production.
Neither the NLRB or any Union have any standing in our decision.
Boeing surrendered to the thugs
In 25 years at Boeing I have NEVER seen IAM settle so quickly on a contract. The threat moving the 737 MAX out of Renton was one heck of a card the company held. My wife will be thrilled to know we will not have to move. We now have enough work to carry me well past retirement. :-)
Boeing is too dependent on Gov’t contracts to be able to tell the NLRB to shove it.....but they should.
A bunch of oxygen thieving commies.
So the union scum, with the assistance of the effing federal govt, extorted more money, jobs and benefits from a private company.
This deal looks a lot like a face-saving way for the IAM and the NLRB to give up.
This is a victory for conservatives. The National Labor Relations Boards (NLRB) attempt to dictate where businesses invest has failed.
the IAM knew the courts were very unlikely to shut down the South Carolina plant, while the NLRB itself will soon lack a quorum and ability to act.
Obama would have a difficult time defending it on the campaign trail. Todays contract allows the IAM and the administration to back down without formally admitting they made a mistake.
