U.S. Jobs at Stake in Boeing Tanker Decision




"In the near future the U.S. Air Force will be making critical decisions regarding the purchase of a new fleet of refueling tankers. This decision will have a profound impact on America’s aerospace industrial base and IAM jobs. At stake are over 40,000 U.S. aerospace jobs at 300 contractors, including those at IAM represented facilities of Boeing, Pratt & Whitney, and Spirit Aerosystems.
Boeing’s KC-767 Advanced Tanker clearly offers the best opportunity and value for the U.S. Air Force and for American aerospace workers."



Now we have a chance to help our Union Brothers and Sisters .

Please click this link and send an email to Congress and request them to choose the KC 767 Tanker . http://capwiz.com/iamaw/issues/alert/?alertid=10601266&type=CO
