Machinists Call Strike at Triumph Plant in Spokane, a Major Supplier to Boeing
On Monday, unionized employees of Triumph Composites Systems voted to go on strike after their current contract expires this Tuesday at midnight. The company, which is located in Spokane, Washington, is a major aerospace supplier. These workers already voted to reject a proposed new three-year contract, which did not bring back pension benefits and did not offer wage increases for most workers.
