This is fake news. I believe Democrat Senator Patty Murray:
“I have stood on the line in Everett, Wash., where we have thousands of workers who go to work every day to build these planes,” Murray told NPR. “I would challenge anybody to tell me that they’ve stood on a line in Alabama and seen anybody building anything.”/s/

She was mad because we beat Boeing in 'head's up' competition for the new Air Force tanker. See Here.

I guess she didn’t go there a few years ago when they were out on strike for weeks due to having to pay a $5 co-pay for doctor’s visits. (Okay - that was PART of the reason.)
