Machinist union to vote on latest Boeing contract offer

Source: My Northwest

More than 33,000 members of the machinist’s union will vote on a new contract from Boeing next week after the union and the company tentatively came to an agreement.

In a post published on X Thursday afternoon, the International Association of Machinists 751 (IAM) stated the “union is endorsing and recommending the latest IAM/Boeing Contract Proposal.”




The statement added that “it’s time for our Members to lock in these gains and confidently declare victory.”

“In every negotiation and strike, there is a point where we have extracted everything that we can in bargaining and by withholding our labor,” the X post also reads. “We are at that point now and risk a regressive or lesser offer in the future.”

Which were defeated by the membership. If this proposal is passed it will be a defeat for the union. The strike was about restoring defined benefit pensions instead of 401k plans. This proposal contains nothing about that.
