Boeing to Fight NLRB Complaint Backed by Union (BA)

The Boeing Company said it will vigorously contest a complaint brought before the National Labor Relations Board today by the leadership of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers. The complaint challenges Boeing's 2009 decision to complement its production capacity in Washington state with a new assembly plant in South Carolina and seeks to force Boeing to place its second 787 final assembly line in Puget Sound instead of Charleston.
