Washington, D.C. – Congressman Jeff Duncan (SC-03) applauded the National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) ruling in favor of Boeing's appeal and against an unlawful and inappropriate micro-union by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers' (IAM) at the Charleston facility.

"With this decision behind them, Boeing can move on and continue to focus on making an amazing product, employing thousands of South Carolinians, and significantly contributing to our state's economy. The attacks from far-left Democrats on South Carolina's workers must stop."

Background

  • A group of Senate Democrats sent a letter on August 29, 2018 to Boeing urging them to drop the appeal.
  • Congressman Duncan responded to the Democrats' misguided letter.
  • A group of House Democrats sent a letter on September 28, 2018 to Boeing also urging them to reconsider the appeal.
  • Congressman Duncan then led a South Carolina delegation letter in support of Boeing in response to the House Democrats.
